Philippe Quesne/Campo (FR/BE): Next Day, Trafó Budapest. 16 -17 October
The theatre of Philippe Quesne is grafted on common rituals of contemporary life, altering these on stage into small ceremonies, both derisory and playful, but extremely symptomatic of the shortcomings of our society.

The Paris-based director compares his work to a series of entomological studies in which we might watch human beings evolving, as if under a microscope. In Next Day, as in his previous plays as La Mélancolie des Dragons, Big Bang and Swamp Club, Quesne will again take us to a human microcosm with uncertain boundaries, mixing dream and reality, music and languages, loneliness and the group. Only this time with thirteen kids on stage, ages of 8 to 12.

By converting everyday occurrences into small dramatic rituals, Quesne transforms the normal world of children into a totally new, alienating and breath-taking universe.
