Fuckup Nights Amsterdam

Fuckup Nigths #31 - Sports Edition

An event dedicated to failure stories, fuckups and strong anecdotes, with which we give the middle finger to only success stories. Come to MidWest to attend this English-spoken performance.

Goodbye, Lindita

Goodbye, Lindita is a poetic farewell, a visual meditation on mourning. A family experiences grief in a muted, wordless manner, stupefied by their loss, until a series of uncanny events seems to suspend the boundaries between their world and that of the departed Lindita. Throughout the action, the icon of a Madonna Nera overlooks the proceedings, and a Black woman frequents the house. Poetic images and rituals from Balkan traditions follow trivial house chores. To be seen in International Theatre Amsterdam.

In this tragedy, performer and choreographer Courtney May Robertson enacts so-called life-affirming monstrosities upon herself, her life-sized doppelgänger in doll form.

Song of the Dark Forest
