Nachtzwemmen was created in the heart of corona lockdown and has toured theaters in Belgium and the Netherlands ever since. The play was intended to take place in clubs, and at Electropark it finally will be staged where it was supposed to: an underground techno club.
Jarne Van Loon and Lieselot Siddiki became acquainted in the satirical and activist fun-fair collective Zuidpark. Having a mutual love of the Dionysian, nightlife, glitter and spectacle, they decided to make Nachtzwemmen (Nightswimming) together. A party camouflaged as theatre. Or theatre camouflaged as a party.
Nachtzwemmen (tradotto dall’olandese “nuotata notturna”) è una festa sotto forma di performance, una performance sotto forma di spettacolo. Nachtzwemmen nasce dal desiderio di riappropriarsi del senso di svago e di libertà che la vita notturna porta con sé e che è stato negato negli ultimi anni. Un’immersione nella dimensione del club mossa dall’amore per lo spirito dionisiaco, la notte e i glitter. Uno show senza regole e inibizioni, un tuffo nel mondo marino popolato di strane creature acquatiche.
