Urban Dance Performance (Y)Our Eyes Only

(Y)Our Eyes Only, is a dance performance about young black men who are confronted with prejudice, racism, inequality and distorted images in media. They invite the audience to change your mindset to a more positive self-image, so that you can also live your dreams.

The dancers of (Y)Our Eyes Only grew up in Amsterdam Zuidoost, a district that is bursting with stories. You will watch the story of a group of men who try to profile themselves within a society in which prejudice and inequality unfortunately still play a role. Distorted images in the media have also made it extra difficult for them to be treated equally. They have to search for their own truth.

Heri Heri meal and the story of Dora Tamana

After the performance, you can eat Heri Heri in the foyer, where artist MC Sranang will take you on a journey through the story of Dora Tamana, the South African resistance fighter after whom our square is named. In recent times, a number of parties from the neighbourhood have joined forces with local residents to draw more attention to this icon, which has resulted in work being done on a new monument. She is the starting point for the dialogue, led by Dialogue in Action.

Please note! You 'buy' a ticket, but it is free.
