Shows I recommend 👌 Courses opened ✅ Festival is soon ☀️
Hey there,
We've been busy (for you). With shows, and with courses, and with this tiny little thing called A 7-DAY INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL 🌞
Busy, yes.
But we love it!
In this email, a few things we would love to tell you about.
We are announcing some really good shows with international superstars. I am giving 3 recommendations (of the 21 shows). Get yourself a ticket, or 3 😉
We are looking for volunteers for the Flock Festival. Maybe you?
We have just opened the 13 new courses for everyone. You can pick one! We listed them in short, all the way below ⤵️
Upcoming shows
From our travels, Gael and I know so many incredible artists. We invited a few of them, and we feel honored that they said YES to perform at the Flock Festival.
I love every single one of the 21 shows programmed at the festival. But I will now only recommend 3.
1. SoundOff (Thursday)
Next to being delightful humans (trust me on this), Anne and Ursula are really delightful performers too. When I saw them perform in Vienna, their skill made me jealous in the best possible way.
During the Flock Festival, they do a completely non-verbal show. So I am looking forward to sitting in the audience and seeing some incredible object work and physical comedy.
To see this show, get tickets for Thursday 27 June. Your ticket also gives you entrance to The True North (by the international cast) and The Hero·ine Who Got Lost (by Inbal Lori & Gael Doorneweerd-Perry)
2. Atlantis Falls (Saturday)
What I love about seeing Chris and/or Charlotte perform, is that they miss nothing of what is said. They improvise as if it is scripted. Scripted by a really profound and funny British playwright.
They are both a bit of a celebrity. Charlotte performs with an award-winning show on West End (improvised, mind you!) and Chris sells out, well, everywhere. Including his workshop at the Flock Festival.
Together they do magic on stage. No matter what it is about. I would go see it, if I were you.
To see this show, get tickets for Saturday 29 June. Your ticket also gives you entrance to Soundpainting (by David Moncada and 9 different artists) and The Matrix (by the international cast).
3. In the Horrors
I love being proven wrong in improv. And the players of SuperCut proved that I actually can love fast-paced, ridiculous improv in a genre I rarely watch. Because they are just so good at it.
They blew me away with their Western show in Karlsruhe: so funny, so fast, so smart, so skilled and so enjoyable. Now at the Flock Festival, they will perform the show In The Horrors.
Honestly, horror comedy is not really my thing. But I can’t wait for Sarah and Martin to prove me wrong (again).
To see this show, get tickets for Sunday 30 June. Your ticket also gives you entrance to R.I.P. (showcase by Feña Ortalli’s students) and Improvised Molière (new Flock production by the international cast).
