Questions for John
Complicite/Theatre Vidy
Role: Co Dramaturg with Max Porter
Directed by Omar Elerian
John Berger and Simon McBurney conversed, collaborated, freely supported and intimately shared their collective processes for 25 years, from 1992 to 2017.
Questions for John holds the echoes of that relationship while asking the most urgent questions about how, or if, we can respond to the events of our time. Events that mean, inevitably, we have questions we long to be answered, but which are perhaps unanswerable.
To attend is not passive. It is an act of resistance.
What has become of the bonds that unite us?
Why do we destroy what we love?
And what can art do today?
