Safe Room, by Dutch-Israeli writer Dara Bazelet, was originally scheduled to premiere one year ago. The performance centers on Tamar, a Dutch-Israeli woman who is torn between her family in Israel and her activist friends in the Netherlands. The production was ultimately not realised after substantive tensions emerged between the creators, cast, and director regarding the interpretation and tone of the work. As a result, the original production was discontinued.In Safe Room, Bazelet retrospectively examines what happened and how the project came to a halt. Together with director Jip Vuik (known, among others, for DIEHELEDING), performers Ludwig Bindervoet, Ellen Goemans, and Hendrickje Zeeuw, and Bazelet herself on stage, a tragicomic theatre piece emerges about an unrealised production.Safe Room reflects on the relationship between art, politics, identity, and (self-)censorship, as well as the tensions that can arise within the creative process.
