Dance highlights masculinity and sensitivity

Tender Men fascinates and confuses, harasses and triggers on the border between bro, bromance and romance. It shows the fearlessness, beauty and poetry of touch, but also the chaos and misunderstandings associated with it. Together with the four dancers, Koen De Preter creates a universe in which masculinity and sensitivity are central. How would men interact with each other, in a world without homophobia?

They treat each other tenderly, empathically and tolerantly. In trashy and cliché moments of spectacle, but also in abstract moments, always playful and mischievous.
