Us/Them

★★★½

“If you’re interested in the therapeutic value of storytelling, I doubt you’ll move a muscle. Its message is empowering.”

-CHICAGO TRIBUNE

“Try everything in your power to see Us/Them...brings to vivid life the shattering story of what happened. Utterly captivating.”

-WTTW CHICAGO TONIGHT
 

★★★★★

“Playful, surprisingly and painfully funny as well as moving. The show equates the children’s fairytales with the tales that adults tell about the real world.”

-THE GUARDIAN (UK)
 

★★★★★

“Unforgettable… speaks widely and pressingly to the terrorist nightmare that has crept closer during the past decade, with children now in the front-line, and no easy way out.”

-THE TELEGRAPH (U.K.)

“Good from the start. For 60 minutes these two actors from Belgium can hold your thoughts and mind as they tell this chilling story with a sense of humor that a young child can display.”

-AROUND THE TOWN CHICAGO

“The brilliance in this work is centered most in the carefully considered staging details. A top pick for lovers of physical theater and a great introduction for newcomers to this genre.”

“For cutting through complacency and activating anger, Us/Them remains invaluable. A theatrical exorcism for an unforgivable crime against humanity.”

-STAGE AND CINEMA

“Truly outstanding…an inhuman ordeal becomes somehow understandable, filtered through this very modern, accessible retelling.”

-THE STAGE
 

“Work of this quality, intelligence and tenderness reminds us that this is why we watch theatre.”
