Come Closer: Come Closer: Jacuzzi and DJ LazerGazer


Show gallery or Scroll for more

Choreography collective Jacuzzi and DJ Lazergazer brought dance and movement to the Oude Kerk. Jacuzzi has long organised Jacuzzi Mondays for 'dancers and non-dancers' in the nearby Warmoesstraat studio. In these sessions, one of the members or a guest takes the participants into their performance and/or dance practice. In this edition of Come Closer , the audience was invited to move and dance together in the centuries-old church building.

For this evening, the collective developed a relay session, led in turn by five of the members. The session was a unique opportunity to experience other ways of moving and perceiving, through the lens of five performers. LazerGazer is an Amsterdam-based DJ known for her sets that evoke a wide range of textures and emotions. During the evening, she provided a live set to match the construction of the relay. The audience was informed in advance that this evening was not a performance, but visitors were expected to dance along: it was a participatory programme where visitors collectively partook in movement practices.
