Dance meets concert, that’s Into The Open’s pledge.

Seven performers embody the groove and share the energy of the music. They spur each other on with pimped krautrock from 2022, or Can’s repetitive theme crossed with The Chemical Brothers’ high voltage.

Voetvolk welcomes you for a wild, collective leap into limbo. Let’s trance! And afterwards, stick around on our dance floor during the After Party with Voetvolk Soundsystem.

“However choreographed, directed and rehearsed Into the Open may be, the most important thing seems to be that anything is allowed, as long as it is done with dedication and energy.”
De Morgen

“A crazy dance concert in which three punk musicians and four loose-limbed performers built a wild party.”
De Morgen
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Into the Open is grotesque, absurd and compelling, but in a joyous way: an LSD trip from heaven.”
De Morgen
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Into the open is the max, all go there. End of review! Okay, we'll try a little harder, but what are words in the face of so much exhilarating dance violence? With their unique 'dance meets concert' Lisbeth Gruwez and Maarten Van Cauwenberghe have a hit on their hands (…). Into the Open is a bomb of energy.”
De Standaard
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“You see how the dancers squirm around the musicians and they almost tear the clothes off each other's bodies. Yes, Into the open is definitely a horny performance.”
De Standaard
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Sometimes, dance has to be just that: A PARTY, where you forget everything and everyone, and hear only the banging of the drums and the howling of the bass guitar while your eyes cling to sultry, sweating bodies.”
FOCUS Knack
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“What does the urge to party look and sound like? As Voetvolk’s dance bomb Into the Open

“Into the Open' is an extraordinary performance. It uses/misuses all the codes of the rock concert to achieve its opposite effect. The audience here is not passively listening to music they already know, but is enticed to actively immerse themselves in what they never heard before. Delightful.”
