Listening to the holy tune of collapse.

In this immersive performance-opera, born from the urgency to learn to navigate a collapsing world, Club Gewalt asks itself the question: how can you retune your senses under the constant noise of information that predicts the apocalypse? How do we give meaning to a future that is not overflowing with prosperity?

We live in a time of polycrisis. We are confronted with advancing fascism, the arrival of the climate crisis, Western cooperation in a genocide, fruits and vegetables full of PFAS, and our own identities proving to be riddled with (internalized) sexism, racism, and homophobia.

Where a future of stability and progress was once promised, all systems around us and within us threaten to collapse. The human survival instinct (LION! DANGER! FIGHT OR FLIGHT! SURVIVE! CELEBRATE!) falls short in the complexity of contemporary problems. Our amygdalas are becoming massively overstimulated, and we are stranded in a panic-limbo.

Can we learn to accept the collapse of systems as a law of the cosmos, without ceasing our protest against injustice? Can we heal ourselves by not just naming the crises, but by truly feeling them? Can we finally complete our stress cycles in this way, allowing us to better navigate a world in flames? Can we fall in love with being human again? And: is this the moment to seek God? Cuz: never waste a good crisis.

In the press

"NOISE feels like a pamphlet against petty whining, a call to fight against what causes the high tension." NRC
"In NOISE, Club Gewalt asks how to hold one’s own in a collapsing world. There is no solution, but there is a strategy: to stand in the eye of the storm and feel what the breakdown does to you." Theaterkrant
"You hold your breath and keep your ears open: The immersive sound performance NOISE explores the state of our society." Taz

About Club Gewalt

Club Gewalt is a music-based performance collective from Rotterdam. Rooted in a dislike of injustice and a love for coming together, they create, compose, produce, and perform their own work: from feminist punk Christmas musicals and introspective killjoy operas about institutional racism, to disruptive club nights in museums and political slut-pop concerts. Always virtuosic, musical, with humor, and somewhat uncomfortable.

Club Gewalt is addicted to the audience and, on the eve of the apocalypse, sings their lungs out in an attempt to unlock an alternative timeline. Because in the unknown lies the gateway to change.
