Coming soon: ISLANDS of EMPATHY, the latest Club Guy & Roni performance as part of The Human Odyssey.

tour dates

Islands of Empathy (in a sea of chaos)

In our latest performance, we’re putting the idea of empathy at the center and explore how it can be the driving force in the way we live together.

Dutch culture constantly teaches us to be the best version of ourselves; individual and independent. Unlike countless other cultures where the emphasis is actually on the collective and much less on personal development. But what if your community turns so close-knit, that the gap with any outsiders only widens?

“Even without leadership, society finds a way to organize itself. Empathy is an important human tool in the effort to design a positive new system. In Islands of Empathy we look for the link between empathy and chaos.” – Roni Haver, artistic leader Club Guy & Roni

Exploring empathy

ISLANDS of EMPATHY is a collaboration with Senegalese griots; storytellers who keep traditions and history alive with dance, music and poetry. In Senegal, we spoke with spiritual leaders, dancers and artists about empathy and community. These intercultural conversations form the blueprint for our next performance.

The combination of live beats by Slagwerk Den Haag and musician Pape Seck and the signature explosive energy of Club Guy & Roni’s ensemble makes for an overwhelming dance performance.

The Human Odyssey

Islands of Empathy (in a Sea of Chaos) is part of our Human Odyssey, in which, from a cross-cultural perspective and in collaboration with an international dance company, we investigate different human feelings (love, fear, happiness, empathy).
