SQUABBLE 6+

A play that fails to agree with anything

What’s that supposed to be? Why ‹squabble›? And why 6+? Who says I’m a play at all? Hello?! Who wrote that over there on the left? Hello?! … And stop reading, it’s so annoying. Leave me alone! And definitely don’t read the thing about not reading! Just! Stop! Reading! All together! The next thing you know, you’ll want to get a glimpse of me. Not a chance. Come up with your own play. Get out of here. Get lost! Read a different text. Go ahead and just think about anything you want. A lot of texts like that. Annoy them. Not me.

Squabble is one elongated squabble on a rotating stage. This show for ages 6 and up is co-produced by Theater Basel. Rehearsals took place simultaneously with a Belgian/Dutch and a Swiss cast. As a result of ongoing squabbles between the two of them it was resolved to separate the two casts and have each continue playing in their own countries. We hope everything will be okay now.
