SHOUT | JENS TRINIDAD (NO)
SHOUT is a collaboration between the dancer Jens Trinidad and the musician Marcus Amadeus. They meet in a common interest in how music, sound and vibrations function as the "holy spirit" that takes up residence in the body, influencing and shaping it. SHOUT draws inspiration from dirges, "praise breaks", club music and dance-offs to find its own rhythmic drive and transcendent flow.

ABOUT THE EVENT
The performance is rooted in a shared interest in how music, sound, and vibrations inhabit the body, influencing, shaping, and moving it. Drawing inspiration from club music, dance-offs, lamentation, and "praise breaks," with Missy Elliot as the project's "holy spirit," SHOUT creates an unfiltered, soulful expression with rhythmic drive and transcendent flow.
The performance bears a clear imprint of the artists' collective background in street dance, hip-hop, and club culture, yet it simultaneously resists genre-based and gendered conventions.
