Two logs. Two axes. Two people.
A pause. Silence. Then the splinters fly. A tree cracks under pressure. But the people don’t stop.
What begins as labour becomes something magical, a joyful, ever-spiralling process of making and remaking. A playful, poetic journey through the human urge to create, to bring order to chaos and to turn raw matter into meaning. Wood Paths is a celebration of humanity’s endless creativity and our desire to understand, to shape, and to find beauty in the mess. With humour, rhythm, and wonder, the performance transforms raw wood into a living story, full of sound, silence, symmetry and surprise.
Directed by Andrejs Jarovojs, a master of poetic stage language and deep connection with his audience, each performance becomes a distinctive world with its own rules. Theatre becomes joy, craft becomes poetry, and the ordinary becomes extraordinary.
