did you come closer while I was sleeping
did you touch me and then leave at once
or
did you stay with me till I woke
and when I opened my eyes
disappear
walking backwards
so that I couldn’t see
you were with me – in the room –
will you come back?
are you here?
is there anything I can do?
to make you stay?

Words as the border with silence. Inescapable, compelling and maybe even – one day – healing. PLATINA is an intimate duet by Abke Haring and Koen van Kaam. An attempt at a conversation. To the extent that a conversation is ever possible.
PLATINA was selected in 2018 for both the Flemish and Dutch Theaterfestival. Now it is time for the long-awaited reprise.
“Abke Haring and Koen van Kaam are cutting-edge performers, presenting their troubled characters with disarming precision.”
★★★★ De Morgen
“A poetic and pervasive duet.”
