The Revolution Will Not Be Televised

New York, early 1970s. South Bronx is ablaze, both literally and metaphorically. The economy is collapsing, buildings stand vacant, gangs roam the streets, and sixty percent of the youth are unemployed. Unable to afford club entry, they take to the streets with sound systems, graffiti, and breakdancing. Their resistance against the establishment evolves into a new culture: hip-hop.

‘HAVOC,’ the new dance performance by performer and theater maker Haider Al Timimi, features a top cast of breakers on stage. With the explosive energy of hip-hop, he examines the power of this revolution. Set to the beats of 'The Revolution Will Not Be Televised' by protest poet and musician Gil Scott-Heron, propelled by anger and hope.

'Havoc' is de hartenkreet van Haider Al Timimi om chaos te erkennen en ruimte te geven. Om te erkennen dat het leven niet past in dwingende excell sheets en maatschappelijke blauwdrukken die ‘the best minds of my generation’ vernietigen in naam van een status quo: hier de kunst, het ware en het goede, daar de ‘deplorables’. Hij gooit daar een vracht politieke en culturele geschiedenis en vooral veel prachtige dans bovenop.
