Concept 

Club 27, a voyeuristc popconcert.

The dangers of our oppressive society are made painfully visible during 'Club 27'.

‘Club 27’ is a voyeuristic pop concert where spectators take a look at both the public and private lives of five young pop stars, part of Club 27. The women take the audience into the adrenaline and intensity of a pop concert, in which a utopian reality, threatens to become a dystopian world, leading to a tight vicious circle of bad habits, from which women find it difficult to escape.

Society expects more and more from pop stars and does not allow mistakes.
The fatigue of performing at your best again and again, without sleep and rest takes its toll. The pop stars try to keep to the routine, but it becomes increasingly difficult.

Their destructive lifestyle becomes oppressively visible.

The performance is made as part of dansproject 2024, organised by Jeniffer.
