we rented a bus
we were with four
we drove 4894 kilometers in 14 days
on the sixth day he turned mad
homesickness caught him in the pants
being on the road can turn you into a fool
we played together
we rhymed
we sang folklore songs
we met one eyed beeno
he lost his dog
but he wasn’t lonesome
we learned the wheel
how to spin it
how to juggle
how to juggle with our fate
we ate canned beans
tc boy baked beans in tomato sauce
the ones you get at the 7/11
the ones that make you sneeze
we were never alone
we were frightened
but in a good way
we slept together
we shit together
dump shithole room full of shitty horseflies
we were animals
we had this hunger
we were scared of dullness
we wrote a petition
we fired our dull selves
and god! we were hungry
but we decided to starve
to loose everything we didn’t need
to kill our longing
kill kill kill the motherfucker
we tried to be naked
but they stopped us and covered us in vilt
we wore their clothes
we stood next to a woman who lost her
husband
we swam in a pond
this time with our clothes on
we got sick
we puked at the gas station
we puked in the bus
out of the window
we talked english a lot
but they stopped us and covered us in vilt
we wore their clothes
we stood next to a woman who lost her
husband
we swam in a pond
this time with our clothes on
we got sick
we puked at the gas station
we puked in the bus
out of the window
we talked english a lot
used sign language
tried telepathy also
but it didn’t work out
we searched for bare truth
bullshit
we embraced the bullshit
more bullshit
we meant it to be very sincere
we wrote poems
we practiced the oratorship
we practiced juggling five beer cans at the
same time
we screamed at crazy landscapes
at cascades
at stone henge bridges
at bronze statues of local freedom fighters
at each other
then we went silent
we bought a hat
later on we needed a bigger one
we threw the pennies in a fountain
wished

Performance at a secret location in the centre of Maastricht.
Approximately 45 minutes.
Audience will be picked up at the Maastricht Academy of Performing Arts 15 minutes before the starting time of the performance.


GLOBE-VOORSTELLINGEN zijn (korte) presentaties en performances die studenten zelf, vrijwel zonder begeleiding, maken en spelen. Zowel vierde- en derdejaars met een uitgekristalliseerd verhaal, als eerste- en tweedejaars in de zoektocht naar hun theatertaal. Spannend en experimenteel onderzoek naar hun verhouding tot de wereld.
