“A glittery ode to melancholy that grabs you by the balls…”

After The Echo is an award-winning, visually stunning physical theatre show exploring the struggle and the beauty of melancholy.

Set in a dark and windy winter dreamscape, After The Echo takes you on a surrealist journey punctuated by explosions of colour and warmth: a blood-and-thunder pop ballad in a red sequin dress, a roadside encounter with a golden stag, two lost souls in a storm longing for a Brazilian beach. On the way we learn a little more about that mystifying feeling that unites us all because it affects us all; an antidote against polarisation and loneliness that connects us simultaneously with our insignificance and our importance.

An iconoclastic show delivered with both the intensity of a drunken one-night-stand and the sad fragility of the morning-after, After The Echo promises to leave you enchanted, moved, slightly perplexed and eager for more.

After The Echo was invited to Brighton Fringe for the Dutch Season after winning the Best Of Fringe Amsterdam.

“the jury was taken by the visual poetry of this show … a performance with impeccable scenography … it felt like arriving into a different world, a feeling of being delightfully trapped” – Amsterdam Fringe Jury

“Such a rich and consistent visual universe” – De Theaterkrant
