Blow Boys Blow

Performance/Premiere by Dennis Deter
In the frame of Open Spaces#1-2016

In “Blow Boys Blow“ Dennis Deter and his crew celebrate the long history of links between seafarers and the theatre world. Many years ago sailors were used as technicians on the world stages. Since then there has been a close link between theatres and sailing ships. Seamen not only knew how to move skilfully over the stage and between the lights, tie tight knots and improve the curtains; they also brought their superstitions, their terminology and their traditions into theatre. In this tempestuous show seven performers master every obstacle with their spirited songs and keep the ship on course until the last curtain.

Performance: Dennis Deter, Jan Fedinger, Davis Freeman, Jassem Hindi, Taavet Jansen, Tommy Noonan, Jean-Baptiste Veyret-Logerias | Dramaturgy: Carolin Hochleichter | Production management: Ann-Kathrin Reimers | "Blow Boys Blow" is a production of Dennis Deter in coproduction with Tanzfabrik Berlin, Platform 0090 and artblau Tanzwerkstatt Braunschweig. Supported by Hauptstadtkulturfonds and Land Niedersachsen. With friendly support of PACT Zollverein Essen and Kunstencentrum BUDA Kortrijk.

Duration: 100 minutes
