  3. Valentijn Dhaenens: Bigmouth


Worldwide sensation, Bigmouth, explores the manipulative power of words. Speeches throughout history have attempted to exhort masses to rebellion or to war; to raise the dead, praise the dead, or to comfort their families. Brace yourself for an exciting evening of startling intensity as Belgian artist Valentijn Dhaenens expertly interprets fragments of speeches from Socrates to George W. Bush, including (among others) Martin Luther King, Josef Goebbels, Robert Kennedy, JFK, Muhammad Ali and Osama bin Laden. Shifts in tone, accents and languages convey the potency of the words spoken, shouted, and whispered. Don’t miss this internationally acclaimed event!
