In TO BREAK, the young Belgian duo Robbert&Frank Frank&Robbert present their very own idea of theatre magic: shelves packed with objects made of wood, fabric, plastic and metal stand lined up next to a Western movie set. Like two splapstick cowboys, the theatre sculptors stagger across the stage with their objects. One scene leads to another. Whether meter-long wooden slats, toy cars, a wobbling cow head or a gun (made of chocolate as typical for the theatre and subsequently eaten together with the audience) – the empty stage gradually fills up with colors and objects and transforms into a vibrant wilderness packed with unpredictable scenes. Until there is no holding back and everything sets itself in motion – onto a road trip across time and space, with excellent prospects of adventurous possibilities.
