Have you ever stopped to think that there was a time without the internet, WhatsApp, and TikTok?
That your grandparents saved their pocket money for months to hear 10 songs by their favorite artist and that they had no clue what a pizza or a pita was?
This performance examines every aspect of current youth culture and traces its origins. From phone booths to the iPhone. From the written diary to Instagram. From the prehistoric record player to Spotify. Van Elvis to Billie Eilish. Van The Beatles to Taylor Swift. From sauerkraut with sausage to durum. Van Woodstock to Tomorrowland.
Een Halve Eeuw Jongerencultuur is a performance about hypes, gadgets, fashion, film, and pop music. A lesson hour packed with "aha" moments for students and teachers. Word, image, and especially a great deal of music. Half a century ago, youth culture was virtually non-existent. Now it is literally all-encompassing.
