»I read in a book / thinking is a form of feeling / and feeling is a form of thinking / I was so happy to know /there are not only two ends of the line / not only two ends of the road /that you can be both / that things can be found in between things… «
After her solo performances »ONE.« and »ALL.«, Lisa Verbelen will form a duo in »TWO.« with celebrated jazz musician Hendrik Lasure. Starting from the theme of opposites and inspired by Taoism and hip-hop, they are creating a music album. Together with director Suze Milius they will turn the album into a theatrical concert. »TWO.« is an exercise to reverse thinking in opposites and to experience what is in between two extremes. Expect a musical and theatrical concert, words and music that make you feel and think, both hard and soft, both dark and light, with smoke and fire, water in the desert, not ugly nor beautiful, all yin and yang, about you and me.
Lisa Verbelen (1988) studied Theatrical Performance at De Toneelacademie in Maastricht, and a Master in Music Theatre at the Conservatory of Den Haag. Together with five others, Lisa founded the theatre collective BOG. in 2013. BOG. is based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands and creates performances based on texts written by the creators themselves.
