This remarkable theatrical event from Belgium’s FC Bergman (The Sheep Song, 2023) unfolds like a living painting, its pastoral imagery evoking the rhythms and battles of nature and the arc of human progress.
Inspired by the ancient Greek poet Hesiod’s original verse Works and Days, eight highly physical performers embody the rituals of toil, tradition and transformation, without a single word spoken.
FC Bergman plough up the stage itself, dismantling the very ground beneath them to exhume a future. A steam engine descends to become a fiery altar, and the new age of AI stalks the perimeter.
An array of breathtaking images to an ecstatic live music score, Works and Days is a physical poem that speaks to collective strength, the complexities of change and the uncontainable force of nature.
