Becoming X Roots

BECOMING is an immersive theatre programme developed by Loulou Sjerps, Alejandra Zabala, Rikkert van Huisstede, Rox Roxy Roxanna Verwey & Nilay Ceber. Each edition is unique and gives a different queer perspective on identity and sexuality. Audience and artists together immerse themselves in intimacy, party, sensuality, dialogue, art and glitter! At BECOMING, more is better, vulnerability is power, party is depth and everyone is welcome!

For this edition of BECOMING x ROOTS we are creating a space of communal resistance and emotional decompression. Moving and creating in community is a way to process our emotions, is a way to resist, is a way to understand the world we live in.

We invite you to join our performers; Rah Naqvi, Nene Moné, Antigone, Alejandra Zabala, Yadihra de León and DJ AMIR in an interactive music and dance journey to honour the social movements, the communities and the voices that have resisted injustice through art. Expect music, dance, spoken word and a space to collect the stories of resistance, displacement and revolution.

During BECOMING x ROOTS; territory is where the body is safe, family is the one chosen, borders are imaginary lines, refugees are welcome and queerness is activism.
