We experience the world through our senses. Eyes, ears, mouth, nose and hands. All have their own set, all thereby forming their own variant of the same world. And how that world enters us, in turn, shapes our identity. How do we relate to our environment? And how does that environment change us?

We experience the world through our senses. Eyes, ears, mouth, nose and hands. All have their own set, all thereby forming their own variant of the same world. And how that world enters us, in turn, shapes our identity. How do we relate to our environment? And how does that environment change us?

For Yellow Horizon, choreographer and philosopher Annemijn Rijk and scenographer Theun Mosk investigated the principles of spatial, sensory and physical disorientation. Yellow Horizon is not a standard performance, but an experience, a ritual actually, that staggers your senses. Everything enters you directly. Playing with light and dark, breath and perspective, for an hour the theatre is not the space it seems. This puts your senses on edge and makes you perceive the world differently from what you are used to. Dancer Noemi Calzavara, mime player Niels van Heijningen, and actress Sofie Porro are your guides through this free fall.

This performance dives deeper inside. Not by deep thinking, but by leaving behind for a moment the usual way we understand, interpret or appropriate the world. What is left when reason falls away and the body remains? Yellow Horizon shakes up our senses and with them our idea of ourselves. For deep inside there is a whole new world to discover, a new horizon.
