Appreciated in France through several collaborations with tg STAN, Antwerp-based collective De KOE stages one of Peter Handke’s most controversial play, Offending the Audience, which shocked critics in the late 1960s. The work is a nihilistic, staggering attack on social appearances and the modern culture of lying. De KOE’s energetic performance probes man’s enduring love for fiction.
