A flock of sheep grazes together peacefully, but one among them is not content. This creature feels destined to lead a more glorious life than that of its peers. It tries to rise. Determined to defy fate, the laws of physics and good taste, the sheep strikes a Faustian bargain and undergoes the ultimate transformation. So begins a fantastical odyssey of a being that is half human, half animal.
With daring originality and astonishing theatricality, this wordless fable moves from transformation to tragedy as the ambitious sheep encounters the inexplicable and irrational world of human beings with all its flamboyant and exotic characters. The sheep experiences the brutal, the hilarious, the carnal, the heartbreaking and the absurd. This contemporary morality tale draws inspiration from Flemish Primitive art and is told through a unique language of movement, visual theatre and puppetry.
A huge hit across Europe, extraordinary Belgian theatre collective FC Bergman's The Sheep Song is destined to be one of the most talked-about and memorable productions of the Festival.
