Creole
In Suriname we speak Sranan Tongo – a language of everyone and no one at the same time. A composite language, created from the 22 languages spoken here. It goes so deep, that we can’t even think in just one language.
In CREOLE, choreographer Shailesh Bahoran explores the concept of creolization by immersing himself in the culture of his native country. The fertile soil of Suriname has been the backdrop of endless exchange between diverse cultures for centuries. Customs and traditions from Africa, America, Asia and Europe have merged over the years into a powerful culture full of energy and connection.
Blind Spot
In a world where we are surrounded by stimuli, we often close off our senses. In Blind Spot – Eindhoven, choreographer Jelena Kostić makes visible and tangible what is right in front of us. In a theatrical walk full of contrasts, the urban environment, dance and freerunning come together to open our eyes to new perspectives.
DOUBLE BILL: Cristian Boscheri & Justin de Jager
About Stream of Unconsciousness
Have you ever had a brief but profound moment of absolute clarity? Few years ago dance-comedian Cristian Boscheri experienced it. Since then, he has been obsessed to recapture that elusive experience.
The dance-comedian even turned scientist to develop a way to control human perception, where dance moves, quirky humor and mathematics collide to harvest precious insights from his audience.
About Brothers
At its core, Brothers showcases the brotherly collaborative bond between Justin de Jager and Sem Deliveyne. They literally met in a ‘threading cypher’ and were blown away by each other’s expertise within the concept. Brothers originated during the Here We Live And Now program at Korzo in The Hague.
What started as a 20-minute version quickly grew into a larger project with Justin and Sem as the driving forces. The duo felt a deep calling to further develop Brothers into a full-length location performance.
