Vanessa Lann / Joey Roukens

Commander_n00b is all about the audience finally knowing more about what’s going on than the performers on stage… Really! The concert is all about five n00bs playing a real-life game from start to finish. But they can’t go it alone – they need help from the audience and from the Concertgebouw Orchestra (_FTW!). The orchestra can direct and shadow the action, react and make decisions, all with the most fantastic music.

Minecraft and Monteverdi, Fortnight and Rachmaninoff, SIMS and Stravinsky – each combination is new, but works. There will also be exciting sounds by present-day composers Vanessa Lann and Joey Roukens. That’s how worlds come together, experiences merge, and we all reach the final level together. ->GG and WP!

It’s a brand-new fun performance by the Concertgebouw Orchestra and the crazy guys from Släpstick: Commander_n00b is a concert and game all in one.
