Yuri - a workout opera

With Olympic ambition, Club Gewalt is taking a whiff of magnesium, taking a big leap and clambering up using the flying-rings. Like an Icarus with a death wish. On wax wings like in the old days? Oh nothing like that: Yuri is right here, right now.
In this work-out opera Club Gewalt traces the tumultuous career of the famous gymnast from ‘s-Hertogenbosch Yuri van Gelder. With a compassionate eye this company shows that life is a chain reaction of random events. Escape? The pumping electro-beat track these Rotterdammers have chosen leaves you no option but to follow: immer gerade aus.
"This is opera as a workout. Tight, formal, easy on the ears." [Volkskrant}
