Tijdens deze aflevering van De Roze Hoed spreken we met Collectief Opblotevoeten en Sketch 351. Een deel van deze podcast is in het Engels. This podcast is partially in Dutch and partially in English.

Collectief Opblotevoeten is een performance collectief dat beeldende theatervoorstellingen maakt. Ze hebben net hun eerste voorstelling Zegt dit iets? gemaakt. Een voorstelling over de performer, het publiek en een hele hoop papier. Opblotevoeten speelt vanuit de impuls en de associatie om zo beelden te maken met lichaam en materiaal waar het publiek een herkenning of gevoel bij krijgt.

SKETCH 351 is a collective of creative and driven musicians based in The Hague, aiming to connect and collaborate with musicians from all across Europe. One of their main focuses is presenting repertoire - ranging from 20th century works to new compositions and commissions - in new and original ways, respecting the composers’ scores and ideas. They want to develop different performance formats and present various types of music in creative and engaging ways to their audience. They’re also interested in interdisciplinary collaborations with visual arts, multimedia, dance and theater as a way to enhance and convey the aforementioned concepts.
