"They played in the market squares, for the king, in the church, in the streams and for the village feast. It was a living tradition and was an integral part of the society.

Actors were seldom rich and it was a very risky profession where you had to work hard to survive. They had to be good at many different things - reciting texts, playing music, dance, doing acrobatics, juggling and much more. Because one day they had to play for the king who maybe would prefer a poetic text, and the following day they had to play in the market square where the comics and acrobats worked better.  

The same rules apply today. To do theatre and above all just to be able to live from it, you have to be good at many things. The body has to be like a sharp and keen tool.

I do not think that all the secrets of performing lie in this kind of theatre.

It is just one of the ways to make theatre. But I think it can help to strengthen the survival of and show new ways to use it.

The theatre must and can do something else than other artforms.

I want to trigger dreams in the audience by using the things that surround them.  I think it is interesting if I can make poetry and drama with a donkey, a few hay-packs and a milking cow and show a completely different face of theatre.

…

It is in the meeting that theatre arises, and without audience, theatre does not exist."
