Who is Kate Bush? That's a difficult question: a pop icon, an outsider, a musical magician.

With her intriguing voice, elusive style and dreamy music videos, Kate Bush has been an enigma to generations of listeners for decades. In Cloudbusting, singer and performer Aline Goffin takes young people on a journey through Bush's inimitable universe. Not with a classical concert, but with a particularly intimate moment in which music, movement and image come together. Video artist Nele Fack has already dazzled audiences with her animations in THELONIOUS by Zonzo Compagnie, among others. In Cloudbusting, she once again gives free rein to her visual imagination with magical holograms.

You will hear familiar songs such as Running Up That Hill – which became hugely popular again thanks to the Netflix series Stranger Things – but also surprising gems that you may not know (yet). Aline's voice has often been compared to that of Kate Bush, but with Cloudbusting she makes it her own story. Armed only with her voice, a mini guitar and a pair of sticks, Aline proves that Kate Bush's songwriting skills remain intact even in this minimal setting.

It will be an intimate encounter between singer and muse, between then and now.
