TRAVERSE @ MERCURE POINT HOTEL (VENUE 109)

Dear spectator,
We are five performers in search for a partner.
We'd like to invite you to Internal, our individual playground,
where you can get to know us in a cosy and spontaneous
atmosphere. We guarantee you an intimate and highly personal
treatment. Please, inform us in time if you are unable to control
your feelings. We will provide an elegant and discrete solution.
Yours sincerely,
the actors
Internal is Ontroerend Goed's sequel to the multi-award winning Smile Off Your Face. Awards include a Scotsman Fringe First in 2007.
The performance invites you to leave the beaten tracks of traditional theatre and surrender to an intimate, individual experience. Drinks are offered, mandolins are playing and eyes meet as the conversation deepens. The question is: can you build up a meaningful relationship with a stranger in 25 minutes? Equally challenging and treacherously profound, Internal explores the formats of speed-dating and group therapy in a clever game of give and take.
Ontroerend Goed returns to the Traverse following their 2008 sell-out production Once And For All We're Going To Tell You Who We Are So Shut Up And Listen which was the recipient of a Scotsman Fringe First, a Herald Angel and a Total Theatre Award.
