Het Geluid I Maastricht
After performances on ‘The strangeness’ of mass graves and an opera in a courtroom in Fremdkörper 0# and 1#, Maastricht’s one and only interdisciplinary theatre collective sets out on a new journey into ‘the strange’ inside us human beings.

L’Intrus I Fremdkörper 2#
Inspired by philosopher Jean Luc Nancy’s essay about the heart transplant he underwent after heart failure.

The tale of someone confronted by the stranger that intrudes his body. Someone who is taken by the fear of losing his identity. Nancy transforms this very personal experience into an universal story. How do we deal with the stranger in our lives?

Het Geluid takes on this subject and goes to heart of the matter. What do we know about the most familiar and at the same time most alien to us, our own heart? In our search we’ll bump into heart surgeons, heart patients, donor coordinators, refugees, xenophobia and a bunch of Roma gypsies.

We are glad to announce that our performances will be ‘intruded’ by Antwerp‘s one and only Balkan Brass band the AMBRASSBAND. You are invited for some food for thought, some lovely narrow mindedness and who knows what more will intrude your heart on the melancholic sounds of the Balkan brass band.

Freely based on Jean Luc Nancy’s L’Intrus
Director: Gable Roelofsen
Actors: Romy Roelofsen, Sofie van Moll and Ad van Gool
Music: Ambrassband Antwerp
