Humanisation and stories through theatre

Summary/Abstract: Jan Lauwers (Needcompany) is a model of postmodern performativity. The experience of The Deer House presented in the Sibiu International Festival of Theatre (2013) is a climax of energy, unleashed by the relationship with the audience, as art is an exchange of energies. The company includes performers of different nationalities, aspect which underlines the theatricality centered on identity. The performance will always wear the stylistic hallmark of the geographical perimeter who creates the artist: the director's work is full of Flanders, as that space is his cultural context. The performance has a composite structure from unexpected directions (influenced by Joseph Beuys or brechtian alterations), in a performative organism where the music has a substantial part and has the ability of charging the performance with energy.
