The story of brotherhood is based on the stories recorded by Alioune Diagne of young men in Senegal who want to migrate to Europe. Together with keyboard player Thomas Lotgering, both makers explore brotherhood and identity in a globalising world and in relation to the place they both belong to, the Netherlands and Senegal. What does brotherhood mean to them? Alioune Diagne explores an African expression of brotherhood and belonging from his African context and with crossovers between dance and visual art. Joris Buizer explores brotherhood and identity from his context as a young Dutch maker working with rap and spoken word. In this Moving Beyond Bro!, both artists search for the essence of brotherhood and connectedness. This performance is the third part in a triptych in which African and Dutch makers create new work.
