Dutch musical theater company BOT holed themselves up in the empty Museum Arnhem, to put it to the test, to shake it up, to listen to the silence and to break it, and to present ‘The Noise of the Museum’ four weeks later.
In the past years BOT has made 13 productions as part of the series ‘The Noise of…’, always in buildings, which after the production either disappeared or were assigned a new function. This time, directed by Marcel Sijm, BOT did their production in a building destined to stay, which will soon revive its function in full glory. In the vacuum between the old and the new museum, BOT reflects on the question of what the musuem itself thinks about it.
