Janne Desmet / Huis van Bourgondië

Cheerful stories about dead urban birds

Theater

The gate is open and a strange bird flies in: Tanya Hrvatin, professional bird undertaker by second occupation, has a suitcase full of stories about birds.Birds that flap around her and drop down dead next to her, because that's just the way they roll.

Tanya has anecdotes about her first Erithacus Rubecula, her peep-peep noises in stores, the serenity of a cemetery and Patrick from the dry feed. Turn your mobile phone off, because we want to keep the levels of magnetic radiation as low as possible. And keep your canaries and parakeets as far away as possible too.

Actress Janne Desmet, seen earlier at Cultura Nova in the comic piece Ramskapelle, is soaring like a rocket. She is gaining fame in the theatrical world for the astonishing naturalness way with which she commands the stage. She loves interacting with her public and gets a kick out of sincere, tragi-comic theatre roles. This West-Flemish actress is incredibly talented and considers acting to be the simplest thing in the world.
