Presented by the international Théâtre Volière company, as part of their Marchland season, in this performance the audience were invited to sit on the stage with the performers. This enabled you to be in the middle of all the action, including the extraordinary singing of Åkervinda, a Swedish vocal group, whose clear and luminous tones created an evocative and moving polyphony.
‘Marchland’ refers to frequently disputed frontiers, which the Théâtre Volière presents very effectively, with all the ambiguities such spaces at the limits display.
This type of performance is very much needed now, at a time when simplistic thinking and narrow factions are sadly increasing. The Théâtre Volière company challenges the dead weight of received ideas in a lively, stimulating and thought-provoking way.
