Please note: this performance will take place in a circus tent at the Arsenaal site: Brusselsesteenweg 602, 9050 Ghent.
Five and a half men are sitting in a Fiat Panda. They don't have much in common, but one thing connects them. Not their place of birth or their job. Not their favourite colour, what they ate the day before, their interests or their mother. What connects them is their father.
The five brothers do not share a childhood or memories. In fact, only Simon and Simon know each other; not surprising, since they are twins. Their father is also in the car, or rather, what remains of him. That is the reason for their journey. They are coming straight from the crematorium... and then the crash happens.
Immerse yourself in a tragicomic spectacle about family in all its forms, and the bond that only arises when escape is no longer an option. Absurd, recognisable and moving.
