You are blindfolded. You are tied up in a wheelchair. There is no stage. There's no audience, no place where actors perform under the lights. Actually you don't know where you are, but you have your suspicions. You are imagining something. Maybe you were here before. Maybe not.

Welcome to the darkest stage of Ontroerend Goed: The Smile Off Your Face. Thisinternational succes of 2003 was one of Ontroerend Goed's breakthrough performances. Together with the other one-on-one performances A Game of You and Internal, it's part of Ontroerend Goed's Personal Trilogy.

In 2021, Ontroerend Goed and KASK School of Arts created a remake with new perfomers and new ideas, a new show in the same darkness. 

Astounding disorientating show… I am confident we will be seeing, and feeling, more of the Belgian company responsible – Ontroerend Goed.
