DREAM BABY SCREAM
As the evening settles in, a spotlight starts its search for young blood. Light shatters on a sequin dress. There! A body crawls out of the stinking ditch. A Shining Star that hoarsely sings:
“Tonight!!! I gave the greatest performance of my life!!!”
A razor sharp stiletto darts through the spotlight and buries itself in the trunk of an old oak. A real icon has entered the forest grounds, and is not to be fucked with. In the distance A Motherfucking Diva appears on the bow of a phantom ship, sailing on former glory. There they are: a shining star, a real icon and a motherfucking diva. Sparkling like real stars: lonesomely smoldering in the distance.
‘DREAM BABY SCREAM’ is a site-specific grotesque and visual performance about the dark side of Showbizz. The American Dream gained foothold in Dutch territory. Inspired by the highly recognizable Hollywood movie genre musical biographical picture they dive into the tragedy that hides behind this insatiable generation. An intimate spectacle about those who will always yearn for sweet success.
‘DREAM BABY SCREAM’ by theatre collective The Midnight Specials (Just van Bommel, Laila Claessen and Lieke van der Vegt) is produced by Amsterdamse Bostheater in co-production with VIA ZUID and Cultura Nova.

Kom naar de onthulling van HET nieuwe aangekochte werk van het Amsterdam Museum. In brons gegoten door niemand minder dan de kunstenaars van La Isla Bonita. Op een sokkel wacht op u een groots krachtig standbeeld nu nog in doek verpakt. Klaar om bombastische onthuld te worden! Everybody ready? Zodra het startsein klinkt zal hen geen beweging meer maken. Kom kijken en word bekeken. Look but don’t touch!
La Isla Bonita vraagt zich af: Hoe vrij zijn we echt in onze stad? Samen staan we daarbij stil. Als ultiem activisme in een stad die altijd in beweging is.
Speciaal voor museum nacht creëert La Isla Bonita een levend standbeeld performance voor de queer community. Een werk dat reageert en aansluit op de huidige tentoonstelling Gay Games 1998 van Amsterdam Museum.
