SHARK
In SHARK Brazilian Frederico Araujo translates his fears and challenges into poetry during an onstage volleyball match. A match that raises questions on cultural assimilation and the psychological labor immigrants must undertake, trying to meet the towering standards of a new society.
It creates tension in the audience, which has two sides: on the one hand, you want Araujo to succeed in keeping the ball up, on the other hand, it becomes clear to you that this is a task assigned by a treacherous system, a Sisyphus's work that he will never be able to complete the way they want. - Marijn Lems, Theaterkrant
