Kill All Kids - Orkater

TRAILER THEATRE | In Kill All Kids Iona and Rineke take the audience on a journey of exploration into the future and the role that our species, humans, play in it. They draw their inspiration from doomsday-mongers: fanatics who hoard stocks of emergency supplies, build bunkers and prepare for the worst. When actually it’s us humans who appear to constitute the biggest threat to our own survival. Sounddesign by Binkbeats.

Julius Caesar - Orkater

TRAILER THEATRE | When Julius Caesar seems poised to seize complete control of the senate, Brutus is put to the test. What is more important to him: his friendship with Caesar or the preservation of democracy? His own interests or the national interest?

Shakespeare’s tragedy unfurls in the small back rooms of the Roman Empire where the game of politics is played out on a razor’s edge. Jealousy and cunning threaten to jeopardise ideals and the imperative of protecting democratic values – whatever the price.

RUMSPRINGA - ORKATER

THEATRE TEASER | In Rumspringa, iona&rineke tell their sensational story of a special friendship and a secret fellowship; of people entangled in a small surrogate society with its own rules and laws that can lock you in as well as shut you out. Rumspringa is a personal performance about mysterious customs and essential ideals, about clinging to a belief even when the things you were always told can no longer be true.

What is left of you when your whole past is unravelling?

DISTEL - ORKATER

TRAILER THEATRE | Distel is dead. He ended it himself and no one knows why exactly. There is no note, no presumed motive. Two years later to the day, the family gets together and the strained relations come to a head.

Semper: “I’ve thought about it a thousand times, tried to imagine what it must be like… those final moments.”

Colt: “A thousand? No, brother - maybe you thought about it once or twice, or a dozen times at best, but then you let it go and you moved on with your life. Don’t pretend to be more sensitive than me.”
