Informatie: SOLSTICE NIGHT W/ JACOB DWYER & DIANE MAHIN
19 DECEMBER
DOORS OPEN / DINNER 18:30
START 20:30
On this Winter Solstice night we invite you to the Plantage Dok to come gather around the fire and honour the human voice. From furious growling, through storytelling, to collective, harmonious soundscapes, we will marvel at the wide range of possibilities of voices and harness the power of our own.
Writer and artist Jacob Dwyer (UK) will present his new live audio drama, combining storytelling and sound art. In the performance GRUNT, by Dutch-Iranian performance maker and sociologist Diane Mahin, we will meet a woman who communicates solely through growling: Raw, physical, and drenched in sound. We will also get a chance to use our own voices in the Anti-Choir: a playful, participatory, community encounter for improvisation, open to everyone regardless of previous experiences, age and skill set. A communal, unpredictable sound machine.
And lastly, the floor will be open for dancing and singing with [artist TBA], so together we can leave the darkest nights of the year behind us and celebrate that the sunlight will return.
