From his album \u201cFeels Like Home,\u201d which features 11 musicians from across the globe, to his work with artists like electro-pop singer FR\u00c9 and alternative R&amp;B artist XILLAN, he defies musical boundaries while exploring themes close to his heart, for example the climate crisis, feminism and equality. Beyond his music, Julian co-founded Music Declares Emergency NL, an organisation advocating for climate action in the music industry, and is actively involved in BOYS WON\u2019T BE BOYS, a Dutch theatre production centred on real stories about masculinities and gender equality. Graduating from the Conservatory of Amsterdam in 2023, Julian\u2019s thesis, echoing the theatre production\u2019s title, investigates how evolving masculine identities can foster safer working environments in the music industry. This research led to multiple guest lectures on this topic at the Conservatory of Amsterdam.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n                    <\/main>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"block block-image-beside-content container-fluid container-fluid bg-white\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6 image-col\">\n                <div class=\"align-items-center\">\n                                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/svenskateatern.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Roderick-Kabanga-3-webbintro.jpg\" width=\"720\" height=\"901\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\">                                    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6 text-col\">\n                <div class=\"align-items-center\">\n                    <main class=\"entry-content\">\n                        \n\n<p>Roderick Kabanga (1993) is an actor born in Oulu.

Originally from Canada, he is now a queer transgender nuisance who performs on Finnish and international stages since 2004. In comedy he works with emotionally charged topics and the abject, while in curating he combines genres, highlights \u201clow-brow\u201d culture, and creates spaces for others to perform in. Recently this has included the trans-masculine group dance piece \u201cT4T4U\u201d in Kiasma Museum, as well as the \u201cQueer Art Superstar Ball\u201d event in Kiasma in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He has co-created several community-driven projects, including \u201cFeminist Comedy Night\u201d and \u201cFeminist Comedy Academy\u201d, the Thalia award-winning drag, burlesque and comedy show \u201cPunch Up! \u2013 Resistance and Glitter\u201d, and the monthly queer salon \u201cAttic Underground\u201d. His most recent solo show, \u201cCuck\u201d, takes on fatherhood, masculinity, and online humiliation, which sounds high-brow but it\u2019s rather a lot of dirty queer jokes. He\u2019s currently doing a PhD on dirty queer jokes.<\/p>\n\n\n                    <\/main>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n<section id=\"block_36b6f43dc82aca277f835d379e33a273_69eb9b7241517\" class=\"block block-content-wrapper container-fluid bg-white container-fluid\">\n\t<div class=\"container\n\t\t\tshow-all\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 col-lg-8 offset-lg-2 col-hd-6 offset-hd-3\">\n\t\t\t\t<main class=\"entry-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Boys Won&#8217;t be Boys (in English)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Boys Won&#8217;t Be Boys is a Dutch theatrical and social movement in the field of male emancipation. We are an ever-growing platform with an inexhaustible source of innovative theatrical perspectives around the changing role men have in our time. &nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br>With his singing voice spanning four octaves, initiator <strong>Rikkert van Huisstede<\/strong> (1993) transcends boundaries. His innovative take on themes like gender, sexuality and love originated in his attic room, where he dreamed about creating more space for boys and men to break out of the ill-fitting idealised image of masculinity.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In no time, the company grew into a major social theatre project in the Netherlands, in which over a 100 performers and legions of young people are given the space to freely express themselves as human beings and theatre-makers. They share various stories about their relationship with masculinity, identity and gender roles. Through these stories, performers and audiences free themselves (if only for a while) from male societal norms.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boys Won&#8217;t Be Boys reaches a diverse audience (those interested in these themes, theatre lovers, young, old and culturally diverse), many of whom are new to theatres, and appeals to both queer and straight communities. The show forges unique connections between many different social groups, creating a sense that diversity and inclusivity is about everyone, and that everyone is welcome.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/svenskateatern.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/boys-wont-be-boys-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/svenskateatern.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/boys-wont-be-boys-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/svenskateatern.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/boys-wont-be-boys-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/svenskateatern.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/boys-wont-be-boys-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/svenskateatern.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/boys-wont-be-boys-1536x1025.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/svenskateatern.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/boys-wont-be-boys-2048x1366.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/svenskateatern.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/boys-wont-be-boys-1920x1281.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 575px) 100vw, (max-width: 767px) 510px, (max-width: 991px) 290px, (max-width: 1199px) 530px, 840px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Kuva: Ernst Coppejans<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/main>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Boys won&#8217;t be boys on turvallinen tila monimuotoiselle yhteis\u00f6lle, jonka keski\u00f6ss\u00e4 ovat henkil\u00f6kohtaiset ja rehelliset tarinat maskuliinisuudesta.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":16345,"template":"","class_list":["post-16504","shows","type-shows","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
