Theatre: Cassandra at Rogaland Theatre

Theatre performance in Norwegian.

Out of nowhere, Cassandra appears in the theatre room. She doesn't quite know who she is, but she needs to be heard. From a wordless place, detached from time and space, she starts talking. And she doesn't stop.

She's trying to make us understand her - but maybe that's impossible? Cassandra is therefore looking for meaningful connections in a seemingly disconnected world and disjointed everyday life. Is it even possible to believe in another possible world, or to understand other people? How can we understand what we are unable to believe in?

Cassandra is a voice that, through a serious and realistic, but also dreamy and playful text, enters a language that challenges itself in its search for meaning. In Cassandra, Mattis Herman Nyquist and Fredrik Høyer continue their dramatic project, which in its distinctive way, in monologue form, depicts the individual's need for human contact. Now in collaboration with actress and artist Benedicte Izabell Ekeland.
