The Script: Make Yourself at Home | Liesbeth Gritter (Kassys)

What will happen if a director gives the same solo to six different performers? A solo with a description in painstaking detail what the performer should do and especially how? With action, text, movement, tempo, mise-en-scène and film framing thorough and detailed written out? And what will happen if the director demands these six actors to perform it on the same night, at the same time, with their camera on, in a Zoom meeting? How strictly follows each performer the directions in the script? Will they give each other a place in the spotlight? Will they become selfish-performers, or will they serve each other?

In the script, there’s no main cast or supporting cast. There’s only one role and six performers simultaneously bring their own interpretation of the same solo. There is no contact. The performers do their thing separately. They are bound by the script.

The script reveals how the interpretation of the solo may differ. The show focuses on the frustration of 'living alongside each other’. The feeling that you, even though you're part of a group, you can’t escape an existential loneliness. “The Script: Make Yourself at Home” will show the uncertain, absurd and ordinary situation most of us are in right now.
