Intricate Interplays

An enchanting evening where performances and audiovisual art come together. Intricate Interplays presents a series of works in which the weather is central, selected by the artist community iii. The works flow seamlessly into each other and create a unique, sensory experience in which the boundaries between individual and collective blur.

Accompanying the performance, iii offers a workshop in which nature and technology meet. Students explore the relationship between human senses and the environment, make their own instruments, and present the result after the workshop.

S.a.m. (stop annoying me)  

An immersive trip through the thoughts and feelings of 16-year-old Sam. Film, theater and live music merge during this performance. How do you find and maintain your own identity in a world that sometimes feels hostile? 

On stage, the adult Sam follows her on-screen appearing younger self as events from their lives unfold piecemeal. Young Sam struggles with fears and feelings of loneliness and ungriip. She seeks refuge in the world of film and music, where her own creativity and imagination are given space. The members of Cello Octet Amsterdam alternately play the roles of extras and musicians with music ranging from electronic pop and contemporary classical to alienating soundscapes. Thus film, music and theater come together to create a deeply personal performance about growing up and mental health. 

Makers: Dyane Donck Company & Cello Octet Amsterdam  
Date: zaterdag 3 mei 
Time: 20:15 - 21:15
