Please (don’t) let me be (mis)understood is a per­for­man­ce by Geert Belpaeme on which Bosse col­la­bo­ra­ted as co-direc­tor.

In Please (don’t) let me be (mis)understood, three per­for­mers enact the intrin­sic fren­zy of being human, har­king back to an ancient, almost extinct, tra­di­ti­on: clow­ning. With the clown’s non­sen­si­cal lan­gu­a­ge and wob­bly body, with cheer­ful reckles­s­ness and fri­vo­lous pre­ten­ce, they make their way through human his­to­ry and beyond. Please (don’t) let me be (mis)understood is a hybrid per­for­man­ce that veers bet­ween clow­ne­ry, dan­ce and the­a­tre, one in which human bodies step out­si­de their sho­res to play non-human rela­ti­ons­hips as well. All with the wink of the clown’s eye.
