”The instant standing ovation in Avignon wasn’t merely a way to reward the performers for their efforts: One Song lingered in the mind as a wild, exhilarating study in absurdity.“
— The New York Times

Through the metaphor of a live competition/concert, including a commentator and a cheer- leader, Miet Warlop invites us to form a community and lift each other up, as in a celebration. The temporary becomes the universal, and the personal becomes something of the collective. That is the subtext of ONE SONG: how one song can give meaning to a whole society. Unity in diversity.

A group of performers enters the arena for a mesmerizing ritual about farewell, life and death, hope and resurrection. Again and again, someone stands up to push their boundaries. They defy time and give expression to a deep human need: the moment when we can transcend our thinking body.
