photo: Andreas J Etter
After 30 performances, the 2014-2015 tour of My Private Odyssey has come to a close. A spectacular collaboration with the extraordinary Club Guy & Roni, tanzmainz, composer David Dramm & composer/pianist Tomoko Mukaiyama, (electric) violinist Monica Germino, and flutist Anne La Berge.
Some press below:
"...honest and extraordinarily modern. Magnificent." -Allgemeine Zeitung
5 stars, Theaterkrant.nl ***** "It's also refreshing to see musicians at work that are not just fantastic performers but also strong actors. The main merit of My Private Odyssey is the harmony between all of the media, dancers, musicians, and that orating, chain-smoking Albert Camus meets Alain Delon..."
"...the fabulous dance group Club Guy & Roni...through an explosion of dance and music they bring a scorching ode to Homer, while driven by Odyssey's monologue written by Van den Bosch.” -NRC Handelsblad
