About TALK TO ME:
TALK TO ME is a physical and musical youth performance about the voice in your head and the power to rewrite it. This new multidisciplinary production by Cecilia Moisio explores the growing mental pressure experienced by teenagers and young adults today: performance anxiety, social comparison, online influence, and the increasingly critical inner voice.
Four performers move through a landscape of thoughts, expectations, and self-images. Through movement, text, voice, and music, their inner dialogues become visible and audible. As the performance unfolds, critical and chaotic self-talk gradually transforms into harmony, and spoken voice evolves into singing. TALK TO ME invites audiences to reflect on how we speak to ourselves — and whether we can learn to reshape that voice.
TALK TO ME is a co-production between Cecilia Moisio Company and Maas theater en dans, premiering in Fall 2027. The tour will continue throughout the Netherlands till the end of 2027.
About Maas theater en dans
Maas theater and dance is the largest theater and dance production company for children, youth, and young adults in the Netherlands, and has its own theater in Delfshaven, Rotterdam. From their home base, they create physical work for a young audience in all possible forms and for all conceivable ages, often without language, and choosing personalities on stage instead of characters. These productions tour across Rotterdam, the country, and the world. Education and interaction are intertwined with every project, and talent is grown alongside. Maas works towards an equal world and actively attempts to decolonize its practice and organization. That means questioning all boxes, whether they relate to our productions, our audiences or our own organizational culture.

You will be in salaried employment for the entire period according to the Dutch labour laws. During the production and tour you are expected to have a residency in the Netherlands.
