Rango Starr will perform a synth piece, telling a story of an ancient uprising, in the form of a black bloc turned cop clown hilarity.
Radio Plantsoen feat. Madame Favorella and G.G. Axum are performing a JA! Redux.
A spoken word performance on a video and music base. Inspired by the project Ja! by Simon Vinkenhoog & Spinvis Combo
Zaza is going to do something, too:
‘My Shy Colors Raging Dreams’,
It will be soft-eery and a tiny bit absurd, wuuuhuuuuuuu

Amsterdam BANGS is a politically charged joyride taking place all over Amsterdam during September 19th to 22nd. Get ready for a BANGING theatre and performance festival, organised by anarchists, artists, and activists, to take over not just traditional venues, not just the squats, not just the streets, not just your local Albert Heijn, not just your ING help desk but even your own home. BANGS is non-hierarchically and self-organised: anyone can propose their show, wherever they want, create any workshop or performance, so long as it’s non-commercial and BANGING. Stages are kept behind gates, giving space only to certain voices. We want Amsterdam to be our stage and hear the voices of many! We wish for soft, loud, ludicrous, experimental performance art and activism to take over the city and shake it up! Have the city become our playground.
