“Do you ever find yourself thinking – what do eggs and ladders have in common? Well, Sketch351 has been haunted by this question for the past multiple years. Is there more beyond the double consonant? Can you eat ladders? Should you climb eggs? As the obsession became a reason of being, this musician’s ensemble found theirselves feverishly creating a performance that aims to find answers to the aforementioned doubts. Everything shy of scientific reason will be applied. Expect the most of the most organized chaos. The concept of “nothing” might gain a whole new meaning. The method is pure deniability and madness.

Any similarity with reality is pure coincidence.

Sketch351 is a cello, flute, percussion, piano and trombone ensemble based in Den Haag. As “artist in residence” at Festival Dag in de Branding they’ve been taking a deep dive into the Fluxus Movement’s manuals. Coached by actor and director Titus Muizelaar and musician Heleen Hulst, they’ve turned their artistic exploration into a playground and began thinking about performing music outside the physical and symbolic boundaries of a concert hall.”
