Something Raw 2009! -

In search of a contemporary spectacle

This year's theme is ‘the search for contemporary spectacle'. Today more than ever before, dance and performance artists are not only creating a stir with strong concepts, but also going in search of surprising - and often very physical - ways of communicating with audiences. This work demonstrates even greater openness towards the audience, while at the same time raising questions about ossified conventions, traditions and beliefs. Every performance selected for the festival relates to the theme of the ‘spectacular' in its own, unique way. Most of the productions are Dutch premieres, and a number of performances have even been produced specially for the festival.
