Energetic, disarming and musical dance theatre

Quake is a production by director/writer Casper Vandeputte and choreographers Melvin Fraenk and Cagdas Gülum. An energetic, disarming, and musical theater and dance performance about how the past lives on within us. Just as a stone dropped into a pond continues to leave its mark for a long time, we are products of our history.

Quake is created by eight passionately honest performers who have their personal "quakes" in various places throughout time and on Earth. These dancing and speaking talents tell their stories with self-awareness.

The performers explore how their story connects to the life stories of those around them, and you too are encouraged to (re)examine your own life story. So that we don't forget that we are history.
