Can (online) dating help bridge political divides? In Swiping Right, Sophie Anna Veelenturf explores what happens when political opposites connect. How do ideology and beliefs shape our desires and relationships? How do we navigate between attraction and resistance? Drawing on her own experience of doomed dates with conservative men, the self-proclaimed 'leftie' brings her personal quest to the stage. As Artist in Residence with renowned Belgian theatre company BERLIN, she blends stand-up, documentary theatre and re-enacted interviews with dates, couples and experts. With humour and sharp dialogue, she delivers a bold, intimate dive into love and politics.
