THE LAST EXCURSION

If you were to take one last trip through your city, where would you choose to go? What would you want to see one last time? Your usual route? Your childhood home? Or maybe somewhere you’ve never been, only dreamed of?

Join elderly man Hans and his caring helper on a final walk through the city to places that have been important to him. We pass places where he met people he got to know and people who left him longing. We see his life in everyday spaces, hills of hardship, corners with touches of happiness. And as we go, time passes, decay sets in and a farewell approaches.
With associations to Haneke’s film “Amour” and Dan Turèll’s “Through the city for the last time”, we go on a final excursion with two different people who look a lot like each other…
The performance is an exclusive experience that provides a poetic and captivating story of life for a small company of 20 people. Throughout the 2½ hour performance, we get up close and personal with the performer and his puppet: the old man in the wheelchair. In this company, the audience is invited into a philosophical conversation about life and existence. During the walk, the audience is also caringly taken care of as they walk, stop and take a break.
