FACT AND FICTION

1. The Fact and Fiction dimension is a way oflooking at art. Think of a theatre or dance show you have been to, that has made animpression on you. Was it completely fictional, based on facts, or somewhere in between?

Has this influenced your opinion ?

2. A lot of artists use their imagination to makeyou reflect on reality. Satirical acts, on thecontrary, show contempt for reality and put you on the wrong track. Some artists go evenfurther: they lie to expose the truth.

3. Cabaret artists also play with the truth. Often

the truth is enlarged to make it funny.

Remember that sometimes facts are funnier than fiction.
