THE GAME

COMPANY FLYING PIGS AT KALEIDOSCOPE, 2000

The policy:

“…a rare equilibrist number … a small comic masterpiece … Thomas Corneliussen is an effortless talent…”

Berlingske Tidende:

“Actually, “The Game” is a silent monologue, but Thomas Corneliussen must be forgiven, because he has a God-given, completely superb speaking body language.

Jyllands-Posten:

“…a pantomime piece of absurd theater, where the very young actor Thomas Corneliussen, with the help of the director Tue Biering, demonstrates a comic talent of something close to Tati’s format … It is funny, surprisingly elegant, stylistically very skillful, yes, almost virtuosic – ready to travel out into the big world with… what an accumulation of talent.”

The weekend newspaper:

“…very witty and choreographically virtuoso a clownish comic figure’s helpless attempt to manage his own life and its cursed duties … Inspired by both Marcel Marceau and Samuel Beckett, he simultaneously struggles with and against himself, triumphantly one moment, exhausted the next.”
