I Think We Need To Talk (research lab)

Coproductie 2021

Under the title I think we need to talk, Collectief Elan(d) wants to create theatrical and visual interventions that restore contact in the public space in a poetic and sometimes absurdist way. The public space serves as both scenography and stage. The interventions meander on the borders between architectural sculpture, social experiment, theatre and choreography.

In I think we need to talk, everything is put on the table. It is a performance about the impossibility of putting everything into words. About the limitations of language. About people's big and small stories. About our urge to connect. About wanting to be understood and wanting to understand. About communication, both verbal and non-verbal. Collectief Elan(d) wonders how people communicate in these times. How do we deal with each other? And how has the corona crisis affected our way of connecting? How can public space in a new way represent and enable encounters in a theatrical way?
