Ben en Vero
Two dancers from different backgrounds challenge their identity and boundaries in an intimate performance.
What happens when two dancers with very different lives create together? Veronique developed her dance practice at Platform K, a company for dancers with disabilities. Benjamin has shaped his dancing body through years of ballet and contemporary training. They come together in a dance that does not shy away from risk. In dialogue with the live music of Pak Yan, they build a universe of sound, movement and text that impresses through its authenticity. The three of them seek a convergence of different styles and disciplines, where it is no longer clear who supports, leads or inspires whom. The result is an intimate portrait of human connection.
Relaxed performance
This performance is a relaxed performance: a sensory-friendly show in which we take things at a calmer pace. For example, the music is played at a lower volume, the lights stay on, and you can leave the room at any time.
Dive deeper into the performance
On March 8, Benjamin Vandewalle and Veronique Mees host an open level workshop that invites you to discover movement possibilities from the perspective of disabled body.
