Theater en toneel

This is the beginning of the Stonewall riots, the moment when the queer community is fighting for equal rights worldwide. Now, more than fifty years later, queer rights are under pressure again.

In Waiting for Marsha a group of queer activists, led by Marvan, wants to hijack World Pride 2026 to draw attention to the increasing harassment and violence against queers. The pacifist Marvan feels the growing pressure from the group not to succumb to what's coming their way. Their freedom must be protected at all costs. But how far should they go in this?

Raymi Sambo about Waiting for Marsha
“I am seriously concerned about the increasing violence against queer people here in the Netherlands. Just like the characters from Waiting for Marsha, I'm hoping for a new Stonewall moment. Perhaps we will light the fire with this performance."

Prior to this, an interactive conversation will take place in NatLab led by Aden Joah, Coen van Ham and Lowie van Rooij The Pink Thread plaatsvinden.The Pink Thread originates from the prism collective and is an initiative to investigate Eindhoven's queer history in the past, present and future. The attendees will discuss the content of the performance, connected to the queer community in Eindhoven, and the issue of equal rights in the past, present and future, starting at 19:30.
