i–witness is a new show inspired by the writings of WG Sebald. 10 years after the publication in English of The Rings of Saturn, Volcano invites you on an extraordinary journey in the writer’s footsteps.
Although Sebald’s actual journey covers only one small corner of England, the book is an adventure of memory and association that reaches across the globe and through hundreds of years of history.
An intimate, up-close experience (using video, dance and the sheer emotional power of live performance) to lead you through strange landscapes and follow their clues, signs and connections. i–witness is brutal, meditative, and darkly funny theatre that explores what it means to live in a world full of the echoes and whisperings of the past.
