The poet Yehuda Amichai writes:
“Open Closed Open. Before we are born, everything is open
In the universe without us. For as long as we live, everything is closed
Within us. And when we die, everything is open again.
Open closed open. That’s all we are”
Enclosed within four walls, the Coronavirus pandemic opens the opportunity for us to be in this world differently, open.
" We are Amsterdammers. Newcomers. Neighbors. Artists.
We come together for a streaming live concert and dance from the Pleintheater and from De Meevaart theater to your home. What is home? "
