Proving that non-verbal language does not need to be unambiguous, and meaning happens only when an action is performed, two performers play on the edges of language and sense, with unpredictable consequences. In a wordless exchange, Mats and Geert play a game with their hands, a game that becomes increasingly energetic, frenetic, exhausted. For the philosophically minded, it's a response to the writings of Wittgenstein, and his studies of language as a communicator of meaning. To the rest of us it's a fascinating and shifting game, one where the rules change whenever we work out what they are, and the tension builds until the ending becomes inevitable.
