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.
