This is a Company performance. The Company is reconstituted for each performance. To do this, the artistic team looks for talented people with diverse perspectives that fit the theme of the performance. In cooperation with the team, this Company creates a high-level performance and goes on tour throughout the Netherlands.

SANNE ARBOUW

Sanne Arbouw (b. 1994) graduated from ArtEZ Hogeschool voor de Kunsten in Arnhem in 2016. She is co-founder of and artistic director and director at diverse and mixed-abled theatre company Speels Collectief since 2014. Among others, she has directed the Company performances USUALLY I'M ON TOP and LAY DOWN AND LIFT ME UP. She is also a guest lecturer at several art academies, including HKU, Fontys Hogeschool voor de Kunsten and ArtEZ University of the Arts. In 2021, she won the second prize for the Gelderse Bokaal of the Prince Bernhard Culture Fund. She also participated as a maker in the Creative Access Lab at Toneelschuurproducties Haarlem.

Her expertise in accessibility and inclusivity in the performing arts means she is often featured in panel discussions and gives lectures and workshops. She assembles the cast Sanne works with as diversely as possible to show the widest possible range of perspectives on the floor. By juxtaposing these perspectives, she questions the norm and breaks through normative ideal images in her performances.

ULRIKE DOSZMANN

Ulrike Doszmann (born 1970) came to the Netherlands to study at the Fontys Dance Academy in Tilburg. After graduating in 1998, she started creating her own performances. For Speels Collectief, she choreographed USUALLY I'M ON TOP, LAY DOWN AND LIFT ME UP and LOVE ME BY THE HOUR. Ulrike combines her work as a choreographer with work as a dancer and performer for, among others, dance company Vloeistof. She has been teaching Movement Classes at Fontys for several years.

We make the performance as accessible as possible. You can expect this at any venue:

• A relaxation room
• Low-incentive facilities, such as earplugs, blanket, eye mask and headphones - especially bring your own if you feel more comfortable doing so
• A ‘floor angel’ / point of contact is available for questions or support
• The foyer is decorated in a more stimulating way. The lights are dimmed and there is no music, for example.
• Our stimulus guide will help you find out more about the stimulating moments in the show. Check out our stimulus guide below.
• This performance lasts 1 hour and 15 minutes (without intermission).

At the premiere, there will be audio description and a Meet & Feel session from Komt het Zien!. There will be an NGT (Dutch Sign Language) interpreter at CC Amstel on 21 November. At the other locations, we will use English surtitles. At all performance dates of CONTENT WARNING: weinig prikkels, you can optionally attend a 20-minute post-performance talk with the actors, creators, and facilitated by actor and musician Lisa Jansen!

In our stimulus guide, you can read about the stimulating moments in the performance. This will help you prepare for your theatre visit, if you feel the need. This document is about sensory stimuli, such as loud noises and light effects.
