Simone Mousset - The Passion Of Andrea 2
The Passion of Andrea 2 is like trying to hold soap when it’s wet. It is the solution that constantly escapes us. It is a magic trick, deadly game, dance performance, farce, debate, musical, sci-fi monologue, all in one.
Masquerading as a sequel to an earlier, non-existent version of itself, The Passion of Andrea 2 is a mischievous con artist of a dance piece which deals with uneasiness, the inability to fully understand, and the painful desire for more. A combination of imagination and mystery, never completely revealing itself, it is essentially a show about a world of impossibilities, in which disappointment, idealism, anger, confusion, and death carry on a strange dialogue.
