How do they sound together?
A blue one with a cape of sleeves. A gray warrior with paper muscles. A yellow mage, and a red hundred-stringed one. Oh, and of course Guy! If only that goes well... When they bring their special powers together, something happens that only happens once every hundred and four years! Before you know it, you're somewhere else. You hear music. It's coming closer and closer. Four musicians are playing happily, hobbling, stumbling. Together they are celebrating something special. The four of them together, that's a party!
The four musicians in the newly formed Oorkaan Ensemble play theatrical concerts without words. They combine different cultures and musical traditions. They tell nothing more than the story you can hear from the music. In Vier! quite a journey, full of Turkish sounds, Mozart and more. And it ends with a party.
Four, co-directed by Caecilia Thunnissen (winner of the Yamaward 2020) and Yorick Stam, is a cheerful theatrical family concert for everyone aged 4-104, full of (un)recognizable sounds, movement and humor.
