    PERFORMANCE

Wolf Children

In Howl Baby Howl, Judith Engelen & Ika Schwander show a world in which children grow up under atypical circumstances.

Ika and Judith connect the story of the wolf children Romulus and Remus with the challenges faced by KOPP and KOAP children.

‘KOPP’ and “KOAP” stand for “Children of Parents with Psychological Problems” and “Children of Parents with an Addiction Problem” respectively. Both Romulus and Remus and KOPP and KOAP children highlight the social and political aspects of care and remain unnoticed in society.

For this performance, Ika and Judith are collaborating with the Medical Social Care Centre (MSOC) in Flemish Brabant. The MSOC wants to work with parents who use substances to reduce the risks to their children.

JONGE HARTEN VIEWING GUIDE

Jonge Harten offers a diverse program. But where do you start choosing? To clarify things somewhat, we have three main storylines that we are focusing on this year. You can see these lines throughout our program. So that you can easily choose which line suits you best and what you feel like doing at the moment. What are you going for?

DEEPENING

FIELD

FIELD was created to strengthen the bond with young talent and to give both the artists and the festival the opportunity to support people in the longer term and to make their “dreams” come true. We focus in particular on students who we feel (after conversations and performances) connect themselves as creators with the world beyond. In a conscious, critical and idiosyncratic way.

WORKSHOP

Kom je er toch nog niet helemaal uit? Geen nood: stuur een mailtje naar info@jongeharten.nl en vraag om nadere toelichting. Vermeld de titel van de voorstelling en waar je graag meer duidelijkheid over wilt hebben (is dit iets om met mijn vriend/vriendin naartoe te gaan? het is misschien wel grappig maar toch niet vulgair? dat soort vragen). De programmeurs van het festival geven je dan persoonlijk het verlossende antwoord!
