Mensen zeggen dingen | NL

The best spoken word artists from the Netherlands and Belgium will tell you what it's all about on Boulevard 2022. Finally, clarity!

Location BLVRD Theater aan de Parade
Running time 90 min.

With a microphone in hand and a beer nearby, a team of word artists deliver delightful poetry, prose and punchlines about heart and soul. This travelling circus of language-lovers finds particular inspiration in Britney Spears this summer. This leads to texts about loneliness, self-determination, belly shirts, #metoo, cancelling, glorification and degradation. But also big business, people who earn money from artists and 'the product of art' are discussed. Mensen Zeggen Dingen (People Say Things) will hit you baby one more time, with music, readings and philosophical conversations about the times we live in. Really, don't sell yourself short any more. Come and existentially heal!
