Additional information
There is a one ticket for each part of trilogy.
The price of the ticket includes refreshments.
Black: Congo
The point of departure for the first part of the trilogy were journals and lectures of an AfricanAmerican missionary, William Henry Sheppard, who was the first foreigner to reach Kongo in 1890. Having returned to the USA, he spoke out loud about the abuse and terror of the Belgian King Leopold II and for voicing these accusations was put on trial before court in Kongo. The performance also alludes to the fragments of other texts, including those of James Baldwin, William Shakespeare, Joseph Conrad and Aimé Césaire.
Yellow: Rex
In the trilogy’s second part, based on Peter van Kraaij’s play, Luk Perceval looks at the Flanders’s participation in the Second World War. What made the young people of the 1930s, dreaming of the new world order, join the Nazi movements in such great numbers? The performance tells the story of a Flemish family torn by the course of history and the eternal conflict between Flanders and the French-speaking Wallonia. The piece is a polyphony with live music by Sam Gysel, composer and multi-instrumentalist.
Red: Holy War
The third part of the trilogy tells the story of the terrorist attacks at the Maalbeek underground station and Zaventem airport in 2016 in Brussels. They caused the death of 35 people, 340 were injured and were committed by Syrian IS fighters, living in Belgium. Luk Perceval does not reconstruct the facts, but tells the story, which is still very much alive in Belgium, through the testimony of a confused father of a terrorist and the letters of Nour, a girl who out of love left for Syria and had a daughter there.
