The System #1, #2, #3

• Date:
• Time: 19:30
• Location: Theater aan het Spui

These events take place in Dutch

Our society runs on systems – from security services to labor migration, from benefits to nitrogen policies. But what if these systems have become so complex that no one truly understands them anymore?

We often say: “The system is failing.” But what do we really mean by that? Who or what is that system? And more importantly: if we want to change it, where do we start?

Three evenings throughout the year
Over three evenings, we dive deep into a subsystem of our society. A theatrical and interactive evening featuring prominent experts, music, and performances by our ensemble actors.

The System #1: F*ck the Elections explores political influence in the age of algorithms and bots.
The System #2: For Your Own Safety focuses on security services.
The System #3: i-Anti. I Am Against examines radical identities resisting the system.
