With dynamic imagery their music theater productions have achieved Nico and the Navigators international acclaim and have been staged in many of Europe’s prestigious Opera houses. The premiere of their newest production The hour we knew too much of each other will see Nico and the Navigators return to their roots. While Peter Handke’s original from 1992 had around three hundred silent characters move across the stage with exact directorial instruction, Nico and the Navigators will explore, using only eight performers, the absurd daily encounters in a heterogeneous society against the backdrop of quickening technological developments and the loss of thought through overstimulation. The comically tragic heroes of everyday life in their hopeless attempts at communication are playfully looked at by the performers. Body language, music, noise, song and text are arranged to life's rhythm of rules and randomness: How estranged are we? Do we know too much of each other? What do we really know about one another? How are our stories related?
