P4rTy GWoRLz N3v4h Di3, Catwalk Punk Concert Edition

An ode to brave spaces, radical friendship, spectacular failure, transformation, and bodily fluids. We all know her. The party girl. When she enters a room, you are not the only one who notices. She is impossible to miss, yet somehow remains elusive. You catch glimpses of her throughout the night. Maybe she asks you for a light. Maybe you overhear her laugh from across the room. Maybe you brush past her on the dance floor or catch a trace of her perfume as she disappears into the crowd. Perhaps you encounter her in a compromising situation near the bathroom stalls. For a brief moment, your worlds overlap. But you never see how the night ends for her. You never see her finding her way home. You never learn where she goes when the music stops. And yet, the next time you go out, she is there again. P4rTy GWoRLz N3v4h Di3 brings together five performers from the nightlife scene in a performance spectacle that moves between catwalk, punk concert, dance and performance art. Departing from the figure of the party girl, they inhabit a universe of transformation, excess, friendship, desire and glorious imperfection. An ode to brave spaces, radical friendship, spectacular failure, transformation and bodily fluids. 'An exhilarating and thrilling celebration of queer joy.' – Theaterkrant (NL) About the Artist Vincent Riebeek (NL) is an Amsterdam-based choreographer, performer and theatre maker with over fifteen years of experience. A graduate of SNDO and DAS Theatre, he creates provocative work exploring the boundaries between dance, performance and theatre, and how bodies are shaped by social, moral and aesthetic norms. He gained recognition through his collaborations with Florentina Holzinger and has performed in works by artists including Tino Sehgal. Balancing art and entertainment, his practice challenges conventions and embraces performers working beyond institutional dance contexts. He recently debuted as final director and Dutch-language actor with theatre collective De Warme Winkel.
