A bigger story
What do our slavery past and melting ice caps have to do with each other? The answer is: everything. During colonialism, it was all about exploitation of people, animals, lands, seas and skies. And although slavery has been officially abolished, it lives on in our culture. We treat the earth as a supermarket and give animals fewer rights than cruise ships. As the shelves empty, we try to preserve our lifestyle with technological solutions. But perhaps we still need to finish something: decolonising skies, waters, animals and nature.

Bureau Vergezicht is the theatre company of Anoek Nuyens, Erik Whien and Rebekka de Wit. Together, they make compelling stories about power, climate and responsibility. Earlier, the group made performances such as 'The Shell Case' and 'A Piece to the People', and now, with acclaimed actress Romana Vrede, they investigate what a decolonised earth looks like. Not through outrage, but with humour, imagination and rich language. 'A Bigger Story' is a declaration of love to the world.
