Johan Simons: Elementarteilchen
In Elementarteilchen, Johan Simons’ adaptation of the novel of the same title by Michel Houellebecq, the actors, five in all, mostly stand on a corrugated floor on an otherwise empty stage. Sometimes the actors walk around a bit, stumbling on the uneven floor. The piece consists of little more than this, but this “little more” touches precisely the right tone.
