The Limits of What Can Be Discussed
Do you know that iconic cornflakes with the green rooster? What if we told you that this innocent breakfast was originally created as part of an anti-masturbation campaign? In Cornflakes, No Pornflakes, Collectief Teder (Isa Zwart & Clé Delphi) dives into the remarkable history of this breakfast icon and explores the taboos surrounding sexuality and pleasure.
From gossip on the schoolyard to naughty chat conversations in Habbo Hotel – sexual ideas emerge everywhere. With multi-voiced singing, electronic sounds, and a healthy dose of humor, Isa and Clé share their vulnerable stories and challenge the audience to reflect, be moved, and laugh.
A performance that pushes the boundaries of what can be discussed and exposes the impact of sexual taboos. Cornflakes, No Pornflakes will make you see Kellogg’s differently – and also your own ideas about sexuality. One thing is certain: after this performance, your breakfast will never taste the same again!

Collectief Teder is the feminist music-theatre collective of Clé Delphi and Isa Zwart. Armed with multi-voiced singing, electronic music, and sharp humor, they explore taboos and misogynistic structures. Their performances are direct and disarming, with personal experiences forming the basis for both emotional impact and sharp reflection.
They combine humor with painful reality and push the boundaries of what can be discussed. They have performed at festivals such as Karavaan and Hoogte80, won the Heij Konijn Award, and have been part of Station Noord since 2025. This summer, they are touring with Cornflakes, No Pornflakes, exploring the taboos surrounding sexuality and pleasure.
