What future do we want to shape?

... la révélation la plus simple et la plus radicale: 
que le présent se transforme en présence, 
qu’une action devient une histoire, 
qu’un humain devient un héros, 
qu’un endroit devient lieu.
Claire Simon

What if we could throw all the ballast overboard, come home somewhere, return to the essence? In ‘Bron’, different generations share this longing, as equals. It reflects vulnerability, imagination, and strength among people. To the live music of Thomas Devos, the dancers search for what connects them and what future they want to shape. One thing is certain: water takes center stage. With a spring as a gathering place. A place where humanity gallops in its desire, where life flows and overflows.

With ‘Bron’, Joke Laureyns and Kwint Manshoven return to the core of their work. After ‘as long as we are playing’ as an ode to the playful human, and ‘promise me’ that celebrated freedom and recklessness, ‘Bron’ becomes an ode to the creative human. A dance performance about the necessity of ‘making’, about humans as ‘makers’, and about the question of the malleability of life. A performance that touches, connects, and celebrates the power of community.
