Karin Bloemen

Renaissance 2.0

It is time for change. Time to put the smartphone aside and to have real conversations with one another again. To look each other in the eyes and truly hear each other’s voices. To leave stress behind us. That was the lesson of cabaret performer Karin Bloemen during her journey to the south of Chile.

If a time machine exists, then it stands there, in South Chile. Where people still live fifty years back in time, at a much more natural life tempo. We should do that here as well, Bloemen thinks. It is time for renewal. In her show Renaissance 2.0 she draws inspiration from the seventies, now fifty years ago. Freedom, creativity and the most fantastic music form the basis for this performance about a more conscious life. Because why do we reach for that phone every time, when it only makes us more stupid?

Step together with Karin Bloemen into her time machine to the time before computers, mobile phones and the digital world. Back to the human scale. For the very last time, Bloemen herself stands on stage with a one‑woman show during Renaissance 2.0. You do not want to miss this!
