Podcasts about ontroerend goed

I dig into my archives to unpack the one-on-one, immersive theatre piece that I saw online back in 2021 called TM that used a Socratic dialectic to interrogate you as you're going through a process of joining an imaginary cult. I spoke with Ontroerend Goed's artistic director Alexander Devriendt to get a lot more context for how he designs immersive theatre productions for folks who typically don't like immersive theatre.

Angelo Tijssens is theatermaker, acteur en (scenario)schrijver. Hij is co-scenarist van ‘Girl' en ‘Close', de twee bekroonde films van Lukas Dhont, en hij maakt deel uit van de artistieke kern van theatergezelschap Ontroerend Goed. Zijn debuutroman ‘De randen' werd meermaals vertaald, en genomineerd voor De Bronzen Uil. Zijn nieuwe roman ‘Het einde van de straat' gaat over een pasgetrouwde man die een nieuw huis betrekt, maar ontdekt dat de maatschappelijke structuren niet voor hem in het leven zijn geroepen. Teddy Tops gaat met Angelo Tijssens in gesprek.

Suzanne Bosman in gesprek met acteur, radiopresentator en schrijver Johannes Wirix-Speetjens. Tijdens de zoektocht naar zijn genderidentiteit ontdekte acteur Johannes Wirix-Speetjens delen van zichzelf in de verhalen en werken van queerpersonen uit de cultuurgeschiedenis. In Classical queers reist hij door de eeuwen heen om deze queerrolmodellen weer tot leven te brengen. De geschiedenis heeft de vervelende neiging om zich steeds in een dominant heteroseksueel en mannelijk perspectief te wentelen. Gelukkig is het verleden kleurrijker dan dat. In dit werk toont auteur Johannes Wirix-Speetjens de levens van een indrukwekkende groep queerpersonen die naam maakten in de kunsten, bij uitstek een wereld waar álle gevoelens tot uiting zouden mogen komen. Het zijn artiesten als Marcel Proust, Oscar Wilde, Peter Tsjaikovski, Ethel Smyth en Freddie Mercury. Voor hen was de kunst een geliefde waaraan ze zich mochten vastklampen, in tegenstelling tot andere liefdes, die in de alledaagse wereld niet werden gedoogd. Johannes Wirix-Speetjens (1997) is een Belgische auteur en presentator voor Klara. Hij groeide op in Haarlem en studeerde in Antwerpen en Rome. In 2021 werd zijn eerste voorstelling Zonderlingen geselecteerd voor Het Theaterfestival in Antwerpen. In 2023 maakte Wirix-Speetjens zijn filmdebuut op het 80e filmfestival van Venetië. Hij speelde onder meer voor het gezelschap Ontroerend Goed, Theatergroep Suburbia en Het Nationale Theater. 

Annemieke Bosman in gesprek met schrijvers Max Wind en Joeri Heegstra. Het auteursduo won de eerste Open Call van Theater Bellevue en het Nationale Theater met de politieke satire Exit Poll. Exit Poll heeft als intrigerend uitgangspunt: wat als tachtig procent van de Nederlanders bij de volgende Tweede Kamerverkiezingen blanco zou stemmen? Het is verkiezingsavond. In feestlocaties wachten de politieke partijen op de exit poll. De nieuwkomer, een partij van jonge techno-optimisten, mag zich volgens de peilingen klaarmaken voor  het bordes. De partij van de langstzittende premier bereidt zich juist voor op een historische nederlaag; hun nummer twee loopt zich al warm in de coulissen. Maar dan blijkt de kiezer een historisch signaal heeft afgegeven: een overweldigende meerderheid stemde blanco. Wat te doen? Wat als partijleiders, partijtijgers, spindokters en analisten de wapens uit handen wordt geslagen? Exit Poll is een spannende what if? voorstelling. Max Wind (1992) was na de performanceopleiding van de Toneelacademie Maastricht werkzaam bij het internationale performance collectief Ontroerend Goed. Met Peter Missotten en Casper Wortmann maakte hij Dear Lollipop, een voorstelling exclusief toegankelijk voor smartphones. In 2022 was Max artist in residence bij De Balie in Amsterdam en maakte hij meerdere voorstellingen geïnspireerd op het publieke debat. Joeri Heegstra (1993) maakte na dezelfde performanceopleiding van de Toneelacademie Maastricht met theatercollectief Opening Statement Class Warfare Forever, We doen ons best en Horizon, en bij Likeminds de klimaatactivistenmonoloog Power. Terugkerende thema's in zijn voorstellingen zijn klimaatcrisis, klasse en hoe macht verdeeld wordt.

With us this episode are filmmaker Janis Pugh & actor, director & writer Tilda Cobham-Hervey - just two of the brilliant women showcased at the Edinburgh Festivals 2023. Anna Smith also gives top tips of other female-led highlights of the Edinburgh International Festival, Edinburgh Fringe, Edinburgh International Book Festival, and - of course - Edinburgh International Film Festival. Our first guest is Janis Pugh, writer/director of Chuck Chuck Baby which will receive its World Premiere at Edinburgh International Film Festival on 20th August. The feature is a musical comedy drama that celebrates female working class friendship and love in Wales. Helen, played by Louise Brealey (Sherlock, Smack the Pony) is stuck packing chickens by night and by day cares for a dying mother figure. Her life takes an unexpected turn with the return of Joanne, played by Annabel Scholey (Being Human, Walking on Sunshine). Janis Pugh joins Anna for a lively chat about her personal experiences of working in a chicken factory in Wales, and talks about the camaraderie she saw that inspired the film. She also explains why love is at the heart of the film, and talks about the fragile male character of Gary, played by Celyn Jones. We also chat with actor, director & writer Tilda Cobham-Hervey who, as well as working in film and TV, also works in live art and is bringing her intimate audio adventure Two Strangers Walk Into A Bar… to the Fringe. Tilda chats about her journey to making the production, and her love of immersive live experience, as well as the effects that the piece has on the two-strong audience. Anna Smith will be sharing her reaction to the piece as she updates live from the festivals, so stay tuned on the socials below.

A review of two of the big shows at this year's Edinburgh Festival: Olivier award-winning writer Isobel McArthur has had great success with her genre-busting works Pride and Prejudice* (*Sort Of) and Kidnapped. Her latest play The Grand Old Opera House Hotel is a rom-com set in a haunted house filled with opera arias – it's worlds apart from Funeral, a calm, interactive meditation on the nature of life and death by the Belgian theatre company Ontroerend Goed. Our reviewers give their verdicts on the comedy shows they've sampled this year. Kieran Hodgson is a Yorkshireman outsider in TV's Two Doors Down: his new show Big in Scotland reflects on identity and belonging; magician and clown Geoff Sobelle explores the comedy of consumption in his show Food; and Sonja Doubleday's comedy of the absurd – Cheekykita: An Octopus, The Universe, ‘n' Stuff – features a nonsense trip through space. The impact of artificial intelligence has been cited as one of the reasons for the current writers' and actors' strikes in Hollywood. AI is also the topic at the heart of Courtney Pauroso's Vanessa 5000, which features a sex robot and in Edinburgh University's Inspace gallery exhibition, The Sounds of Deep Fake, where the human voice is put through its paces by AI.

After obtaining a Master’s Degree in Dramatic Arts at the Royal Conservatory in Antwerp, Valentijn co-founded his own theatre company, SKaGeN.

Aside from his theatre work, Valentijn is a sought-after narrator for documentaries such as The boy is gone by Christophe Bohn. Occasionally he is a guest lecturer at Belgian and Dutch theatre schools. To a broader audience, Valentijn is best known for his acting in several TV shows and films, most notably for his lead-role in De helaasheid der dingen / The Misfortunates by Felix Van Groeningen which won numerous prizes worldwide such as the Prix Art et Essai at the Cannes Film Festival 2009.

Nature Theater of Oklahoma talks with Joeri Smet, Karolien De Bleser, and Angelo Tijssens of the Ghent-based company, Ontroerend Goed in our first ever podcast recorded in front of a live audience in Vooruit.  Join us as we consider whether or not the audience changes anything about the way we work.  When we work in front of an audience do we always somehow want it to go well?  Would it be better if we in fact created a little less community and a little more unrest? Or should we just shut up already and watch some football? (This podcast was recorded as part of the Possible Futures Festival for Vooruit in Ghent.)
