They are hanging in two overcoats, waiting. Garlic, tender and rebellious, and Dangle, pensive and unpredictable, are two souls awaiting their reincarnation in the so-called “Interstation”.
Unsure when the moment of rebirth will come, they are left only with each other and an eternity of time, time to explore their dreams and their fears, and scrutinize what it means to be human.
Hang Up, the first creation of the Fribourg-based company Les Diptik, is an introspective absurdist poem, an investigation into the purpose of being (or not), and comfortably falls somewhere between the worlds of Clown and Theater.
