Untiefe Objekt- und Bewegungstheater von Jan Jedenak (DE)

In the organizer's words:

"Since I was a child there was this hole inside of me.
Since I was a child I was grieving -
loving that which has slipped from view
and grieving that which has not yet done so."

In his new play "Untiefe", Jan Jedenak explores the unexplorable: the human soul. Using only body and light, he conjures up mysterious images on stage.
At the center is a bottomless pit. It leads down into the shallows, past the faces of grief. It falls down and is swallowed up by emptiness, emptiness from which the lost emerges. The visual and vocal mastery of human disturbance opens up the abyss to apparitions of horror.

"Precisely crafted play with body, sound, light and shadow. The pull works on this intimate journey into the deepest interior with all its demons of the soul." (Leipziger Volkszeitung)

Jan Jedenak studied puppetry at the puppet theater department of the State University of Music and Performing Arts Stuttgart and theater, film and media studies at the University of Vienna. Since 2011, he has been working as a freelance theater director and puppeteer with artists from the fields of music, dance, performing arts and puppetry. His productions are characterized by an examination of the unconscious, dreams and dealing with the 'uncanny'
