Opening ExploreZ Festival: Best of ExploreZ & première IN BRAND

Let yourself be surprised!

Come and be surprised by short previews of performances showing at various locations throughout the city during the ExploreZ festival from May 28 to June 7. A diverse group of emerging makers, dancers, and musicians presents a multidisciplinary program.

The festival theme ' Necessity as a Compass' forms the common thread running through the program, serving as inspiration for many makers. Throughout the festival, they explore the social, cultural, ecological, and technological urgency with which we face as a society or as individuals.

A captivating performance

IN BRAND is an explosive and compelling performance by ZID Theater, in which music, dance, and theater come together in an intense live experience. Directed by Karolina Spaić, you see a diverse group of performers trying to hold their own in a world under pressure.

With powerful imagery, stirring music, and intense acting, IN BRAND takes you into a ritual of anger and hope. A performance for everyone who feels things need to change, and who wants to experience what emerges when we keep moving together, even when everything is on fire.

IN BRAND is interdisciplinary theatre that grates, hits hard, and doesn't let go. Expect a physical, visual, and energetic performance that touches you, shakes you up, and resonates long after.
