Inflated teddy bears explode, an oversized set of teeth bursts chewing gum bubbles, tennis balls fall from the ceiling, bulging eyes sweep across the stage which is flooded with colour: In “Big Bears Cry Too,” Miet Warlop gives free rein to her playful and creative destructiveness, which we already know from works like “Fruits of Labor” or “Dragging the Bone.” This wonderfully crazy and visually powerful theatre is suitable for younger and older visitors.
