When Benno Steinegger and Jovial Mbenga started creating The Chance to Find Yourself, they did not know each other. The two come from very different cultural and economic backgrounds: one is from Tirol (Italy), the other from Congo. Today, they both live and work in Belgium.
From a place of genuine curiosity for the other, they faced their ignorance about their own discriminative behaviours and thoughts. In the end, this process became the result: a playful theatrical peek behind the curtain of a friendship and collaboration with many ups and downs. How close can we really get to the other? In The Chance to Find Yourself, Steinegger & Mbenga relate to these questions with bold humor and abstract imagination.
