The Writing of Stones is an odyssey to the beginning and the end of human creativity. A cheeky, dreamy, brainy blast of high-energy physical theatre performed by humans and stones.Welcome to a hijacked meditation, a psychedelic school trip, a reverie on the reality-altering nature of attention, the limits of language, and humanity’s place in nature. Inspired by the writings of Roger Caillois, this show is a train ride into the depths of your subconscious. Expect otherworldly phantoms, surrealism, science, illuminations, aesthetic philosophy, The Sistine Chapel, your worst haircut, an Impressionist lunch, and lots and lots of stones.The Writing of Stones is a physical theatre show about the consciousness of stones that asks if art will outlive humanity. On a reckless romp through the history of art, humans and stones search for a way of being between human and mineral, subject and object, movement and stillness, sacred and profane.
