FUTURE VOICES - Lucinda Wessels | Timo | Nicole Beutler

Dans & ballet

No Dutch Required

Wessels' multidisciplinary dance duet Fluid Figures and Tembuyser's post-porn pop concert Isle of Eros make a powerful plea against pigeonholing. In their own unique way they investigate the feasibility of identity and the fluidity of gender.

Fluid Figures is a physical and layered performance in which dance, sound and performance merge into a hybrid whole. From a queer, bi-cultural perspective, Lucinda Wessels goes on an inner search for identity. The dancers embody different roles and perspectives and create a dynamic in which contrast and connection are palpable at the same time. Fluid Figures challenges the audience to let go of fixed boundaries and experience contradictions as part of one whole.

Isle of Eros is an erotic concert about 'the desire for unity', where the desire to merge with others collides with the desire to be a strongly shaped individual. After several performances in which the singing community is central (Mementum, Missa Homo Sacer, Mystica, NOW WE ARE EARTH), Timo Tembuyser now presents himself as a soloist. A quirky Master of Ceremonies takes us into a post-porn pop concert. An ode to the wild man, to queerness, to sexuality and to love.
