Keti Koti Conference #gedeeldverleden - Jeffrey Spalburg
Wait a minute: a cabaret show about the abolition of slavery? Precisely! Isn't that far too long ago? Could! Don't I have anything to do with that? Well! All of us. Because we live in the Netherlands.
More and more people are introduced to Keti Koti, the breaking of the chains. An increasingly larger group knows what it stands for: the day that the Netherlands abolished slavery. That's a party. For everyone. Because no thinking person can be before slavery. Much is also unclear. How that went. About what we celebrate. And why that is still important today.
The makers of Fatu, MC Jeffrey Spalburg and DJ Phantom are happy to enter the story with the room. They are now the longest -running comedy show in the Netherlands and they know better than anyone how to make contact with your audience in a hilarious yet substantive way. No matter who is in front of you.
In this comedy special they are supported by images and animations of VJ Bikkel and take you back from the present to the past, but look ahead. What do we celebrate with Keti Koti? What does it stand for? What is the legacy of our colonial past on today? How do we give that a place and more importantly;Because the only way is ahead. Know your past and be ready for the future.
