In The COKE SHOW, you can listen and talk (anonymously) about excessive substance use among students

16 September 2024

Ten beers a night. A pack of cigarettes a day. A pill at a festival. For many students, this is normal. But is it really? Causes of excessive substance use often include social pressure, stress, or not feeling good about yourself. In the interactive performance of The COKE SHOW, you are invited to talk about this topic or just listen.The performance is in Dutch but will be translated into English. On October 15, the discussion at PAARD can (partially) take place in English.

Interactive theater

During this research theater, you as a visitor can respond live and anonymously via your phone to questions and statements. Your answers will show what is really happening among students. This information will also be used to provide advice to administrators, policy makers and other parties who can influence the lives of young people. In this way, we can together start a conversation about an important topic that has long been overlooked.

  • October 21, 22, and 23 in Delft at Theater Lijm & Cultuur.

Initiative

The COKE SHOW in The Hague and Delft is a co-creation of both municipalities, educational institutions, student associations, Stichting Time Out, Lieve Mark, and the theater collective In Plaats Van Verkering. It was developed in consultation with young people and the Trimbos Institute, with the clear message: Excessive substance use is not normal, but asking for help is.
