With his three table-theatres he opens up worlds of images that tackle the big questions with touching simplicity. Played in succession, each of the three performances lasts no longer then twenty minutes. “One more thing” is inspired by a quotation from the Italian poet Cesare Pavese about the relationship between human beings and nature. A wooden box, curtains and words floating past patches of colour are the protagonists in this piece. In “Gille learns to read”, Verdonck uses a pair of shoes, a quotation from Jean Cocteau and a dead cat to fight his little daughter’s fear of terror. Also, the audience gets to see a pre-premiere version of Verdonck’s latest work, that premieres in 2018. “Song for Gigi” is an elegiac journey through the images of a landscape at different times. In what is a complex, sometimes disturbing world, Benjamin Verdonck uses his miniatures to create an oasis of lucid and yet poetic moments.
