Paradise Circus Island

You read it more often: 'Person found dead in house for 3 years. The person was not reported missing.' It is happening increasingly often that people pass away unnoticed. In 2023, it occurred five times more than before the turn of the century. Five times as many people uttering their last words to an empty house. Their bodies too decomposed to say anything with certainty about their final moments. It is precisely this uncertainty that forms the starting point for the new production by KASKO, directed by theatre maker Hendrik Aerts.
Paradise Circus Island invites you to lay yourself down there, with your cheek on the cool tile floor of the kitchen. With letters piling up in the hallway. A body slowly decaying. From summer to winter. From mud to dust. But no one misses you enough to break down the door. What is life that continues while you lie with your cheek on the kitchen floor?
With Paradise Circus Island we peek through the mailbox. We chat with the neighbors. We listen to the stove that still ticks. The refrigerator that still hums. And eventually, we break down that front door. Together with 7 other characters who each live in their own isolation. Each on their own island.
A performance with singing, live music, text, and dance, spoken in different languages.
