TRIGGERWARNING FESTIVAL

Are we too sensitive these days? Too easily offended? What do you feel? Fury? Fear? Why are people being cancelled.. 

Step out of your comfort zone on April 21 and get ready for an evening full of theater and sensation! Trigger warning promises to be an unforgettable evening where you will undoubtedly be triggered. From the drama room to the attic of Usva, every room has something to offer and will make you startle, tremble, laugh, cry, shiver, think... Just let it wash over you...

PROGRAM - 9:00 PM - 3:00 AM - TIMETABLE BELOW!

Teddy's Last Ride

Teddy's Last Ride will perform in the theatre with their latest creation Goodbye Porn. The show is a theatrical club experience about taboos around sexuality and intimacy. In an exciting combination of party and (dance) theatre, we discuss sexual experiences, desires and shame on the basis of an enlarged, sometimes even caricatured and misleading image of sex - porn. Can we achieve intimacy by unraveling and undressing pornography?

Oh, How I Wanna Kick It

A performance and video installation about (in)visible and institutionalized violence and the experience of Self in the practice of self-defense. This collaboration between Maartje Terpstra and Reynaert Vosveld can be seen in the Green Room. Throughout the program, the door to this unsettling installation remains open, although the video performance itself is repeated three times. As the evening progresses, the artists' work expands, both in duration and intensity. Violent images are edited live and the duration aspect will demand more and more from the performer. Interval schedule: first show 21.00-21.30, second 21.40-22.20, third 22.30-23.20. Come by and come again to inflict yourself with a cruel experience...

Wabbesch Wabbesch

Death is terrifying. But doesn't that also make death so godforsaken attractive? Satirical video maker and performer Wabbesch Wabbesch flirts with death in the drama room and you can be the witness of it.

Basement Fantasies

Tales of a Magician is a performance that searches for dirt, obscenity and high art. Jip Loots portrays a sexy clown caught in a whirlwind of perversity. This performance explores the cruel and nonsensical, using modern hardcore imagery, and is not for the faint of heart.

DJ ELA//404 

Spinning records since his teen,s his eclectic selections combine relentless grooves with evershifting dynamics. Often involved in the local scene with his co-founded @liminoid.collective, he is collaborating with the project Goodbye_porn of Teddy's Last Ride bringing the rave into the theatre during their closing show, and smoothly transition to open the after party. 

Coco Coquelicot

Via groovy bass lines and danceable rhythms, Coco Coquelicot builds up her sets and skillfully alternates all kinds of genres. Coco will therefore close the evening in a spectacular way and she will continue well into the night!

Do you dare to experience this evening full of adventure and spectacle? Then make sure you're there! Is it too much? Catch your breath in the Theatre cafe.
