FOR REAL
Created by Resonate Productions/Andrea Voets
Music by Andrea Voets, Sarah Jeffery and George Dumitriu
- Part of
- Next Wave 2025 and
- Fall 2025
Created by Andrea Voets—a classically trained Dutch/Belgian harpist and the artistic director of Resonate Productions—FOR REAL is a production of musical journalism, combining in-depth social reporting with original live music in performances and podcasts that bring to light society’s emotional blind spots. As guests in our custom-made sound studio in the Fishman Space, audience members hear the voices of 14 women through speakers sharing how intellectual undermining impacts their aspirations, achievements, and self-worth. The musicians will then invite attendees to be interviewed about the topics at hand—literally improvising risky, honest conversations.
Participation in the podcast recording is on a voluntary basis. Feel free to take part in the live interviews, or to simply watch and listen.
