“Knock knock / Who’s there? / It’s your grief from the past / Not possible / For all time sake / Cause / Grief is like a rock / In your head / It’s hard, it’s rough / It’s just always there / It’s salty / I can taste it on the drop / Rolling down my nose / Grief is like a rock …” As the title suggests, One Song by Flemish choreographer Miet Warlop consists of a single song, one which you will have heard fairly often by the end of the evening. In fact, to the point of exhaustion of everyone involved. When NTGent asked Miet Warlop (after Milo Rau, Faustin Linyekula and Angélica Liddell) to stage her story as a theatre-maker for the Histoire(s) du théâtre series, she responded to the grief over the death of her brother with a hypnotic stage ritual that oscillates between concert and tournament, in which music and movement lead the audience straight into a state of trance. Twelve performers enter a kind of gymnasium in which they invoke the human condition with the aid of singing, musical instruments, sports equipment, dance, oxygen and sweat, working themselves deep into a rush of adrenaline.
