CLEVER DREAMLAND in work-in-progress

CLEVER TEAM has begun the rehearsal of their new production "Clever Dreamland". The premiere is foreseen in June or at the beginning of July 2016. It'll be confirmed soon. 

Hold your ground! Hold your ground! [...]

I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me.

A day may come when the courage of men fails,

when we forsake our friends

and break all bonds of fellowship,

but it is not this day.

An hour of wolves and shattered shields,

when the age of men comes crashing down,

but it is not this day!

This day we fight!! ("The Lord of the rings")

On this team, we fight for that inch
On this team, we tear ourselves, and everyone around us
to pieces for that inch.
We CLAW with our finger nails for that inch.
Cause we know
when we add up all those inches
that's going to make the fucking difference
between WINNING and LOSING
between LIVING and DYING. ("Any given Sunday")

 

In "Clever Dreamland" CLEVER TEAM will confront the audience with biggest fears - fear of death and aging, fear of loosing, fear of changing, fear of loosing, etc. Inspired by the Hollywood productions the team will reflect on the role of pathos as the impulse in life changing processes. The focus will be put on the motivational speeches in famous film production.
