— The Scotsman“(They) make us laugh with their ingenuity and then break our hearts in two with their profound message”
What is normal in a radically changing world? Dimanche paints a witty and tender portrait of humanity caught out by the uncontrollable forces of nature. “Meticulously made using a skilful mix of mime, video, object and puppet theatre to enchanting effect” (Edinburgh Guide), Belgian creatives Focus & Chaliwaté’s almost wordless performance observes the ingenuity and stubbornness of humans as they go to absurd extremes to keep up a sense of normalcy despite the chaos of an ecological collapse.
There is a free post-show talk with Lynda Chanwai-Earle for this event on Friday 13 March at the TSB Arena.
