Orkater | NL

Vieren, In het festivalhart
In 1977, the 'Voyager Golden Record' was launched into space as a message to extraterrestrial life forms. Only, half of today's world population was not yet born back then. Therefore, the makers of Orkater set themselves the task of making a new record; the B-side. A musical update of the world in the form of a comprehensive song. If you had one song to represent all of humanity, what would you sing?
For over fifty years Orkater is the musictheatrecompany of Holland, they bring relevant stories that must be told and where music is equal to words. Productions of Orkater are direct, sensitive, daring and generous.
