    WORKSHOP

Write your own protest song

What do you want to protest against? Or can’t you find the words? Come and experiment with words and musical styles.

As a teaser for the performance Scherven van de wereld (Shards of the World), you can get started yourself during this workshop. Together with music theatre maker Zola Westerhof, we will explore texts from the performance that you would like to protest about. We will then turn this into your own protest song.

You don’t have to be musical to participate. According to Zola, anyone can make music. Do you have an instrument you would like to bring? Of course you can!

About the creator

Zola Westerhof (she/her, Groningen 1999) is a musical theatre maker, musician, podcast maker, director, composer, producer and education maker. She would describe herself as David Bowie’s song Heroes. She is a fan of David Bowie because she thinks it’s really cool that he constantly reinvents himself and is difficult to pigeonhole.

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?

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!
