(Tristan
Jacobs & Hannah Lax)
Schlesinger Theatre at Michaelhouse will
presents one performance of Fall was in
your eyes created and performed by Tristan Jacobs and Hannah Lax.
Fall
was in your eyes is non-verbal, visual theatre that
incorporates magical object-manipulation, puppetry and physical theatre. It is
inspired by Kambani Ramano’s poem a
playful fall.
Recently returned from France, where Fall was in your eyes was part of the
South Africa/French season in France, this new production brings together two
new talents, Tristan Jacobs and Hannah Lax, who are pushing boundaries with
their brand of physical theatre and making waves on a national and international
front.
The performance is set during a period of
civil unrest in an unspecified country. It is an excavation into the emotional
tragedy of war and its effect on two people, and a dog. Woman meets man; couple
meets dog; family meets war. The piece is a simple exploration of the beauty
found in the small things when there aren’t any big things left, it highlights
the attempt to create a home in a world of debris.
Fall
was in your eyes will have one performance on January
31 at 19h30 in the Schlesinger Theatre at Michaelhouse. Ticket R80 booked through
Mrs Angela Jonsson at theatre@michaelhouse.org
