About the episode

In this second episode, Alain Platel elaborates on the international success of Bonjour Madame and reflects on the ephemeral nature of a theatre performance. He then explains that encounters with creative individuals throughout his career have inspired the development of new work. At the height of his career and following Moeder en Kind, La Tristeza Complice, Bernadetje, lets op Bach, and Allemaal Indiaan, Alain shocks the world of dance by announcing his retirement.
