The show must go on is provocative and charming, serious and ridiculous, cheerful and intense. Jérôme Bel’s influential dance performance has toured all over the world and provoked fierce, often contradictory reactions in every town and every theatre. Now, the production visits Amsterdam for the first time. Nineteen dancers and a DJ use nineteen pop songs to play with everyday cliché’s and the conventions of the theatre, confronting the audience with its reactions. An exact description would make it seem too simple for words, but it is profoundly sophisticated and intelligent theatre. The show must go on recovers the real feeling that is hidden in sentiment and cliché.
