About the event

My Body as a Commodity – Anne-Laure Vandeputte
[NEDERLANDS]

your trauma has a beat

My Body as a Commodity is een broeierige muzikale trip die de grenzen van fictie aftast. Onder high energy live percussie onderzoekt theatermaker Anne-Laure Vandeputte in welke narratieven onze lichamen - al dan niet bewust - worden ingeschreven.

Ze ontmoet een regisseur die het over sterke vrouwen wil hebben.
Ze ontmoet een man die zich afvraagt of hij in de show voorkomt.
Ze ontmoet een sekswerker in Berlijn en bombardeert haar tot haar own personal jesus.

Samen met muzikant Andrew van Ostade brengt Vandeputte een monologue-on-beats die het narratief over lichamelijk trauma bevraagt en uitdaagt.

trigger warning: there may be sexual violence
trigger warning: where there’s pain there’s a party

[ENGLISH]

your trauma has a beat

My Body as a Commodity is a sultry musical trip that explores the boundaries of fiction. Under high-energy live percussion, theatre-maker Anne-Laure Vandeputte explores the narratives in which our bodies are inscribed - consciously or unconsciously.

She meets a director who wants to talk about strong women.
She meets a man who wonders if he is in the show.
She meets a sex worker in Berlin and bombs her as her own personal jesus.

Together with musician Andrew van Ostade, Vandeputte performs a monologue-on-beats that questions and challenges the narrative about physical trauma.
