MENS

In collaboration with writers as Dimitri Verhulst and Tom Lanoye Wende will invite the public on a surprising and, occasionally, confronting journey. 

Over the coming years, Wende and Muziektheater Transparant will be collaborating intensively. In recent years, Wende has developed into one of the Netherlands’ most versatile and controversial artists and performers. Whether it’s pop, electro, classical or contemporary music, or even a film, she always succeeds in moving her audience deeply. Wende’s passion for telling stories in her own voice, cutting through all possible genres, is the common thread that runs through everything that she does. Whether performed in a theatre or a club, Wende’s productions are bursting with expression. In her new performance, Wende, ‘Storytelling to Music’ as she herself describes it, once again plays a central role. She has asked renowned writers and musicians from both home and abroad, including Dimitri Verhulst and Tom Lanoye, to write new stories and songs with her. With them, she will be reflecting on herself, the future, the language and the world in which she lives. The result is certain to be an intimate, surprising and occasionally confronting journey.
