Superball Lollipop & Mr. Classic is Oorkaan's latest performance made together with HIIIT, and with beatboxer Bart Voogt, alias B-Art. 'Beatbox meets classical percussion' is the motto of the performance. The music is arranged by Pepe Garcia, also a percussionist and teacher at The Hague. It is directed by Cornelia Voglmayr, dancer and choreographer, who worked with Sasha Waltz, among others.

The musicians on stage all play music from memory and have been trained by Caecilia Thunnissen in the physical acting style that is characteristic of Oorkaan. They are trained according to the Oorkaan method to become theatrical performing musicians. With the repertoire they play they serve Oorkaan's mission: to introduce as many small and large ears as possible to live music and to open up the canon of global classical music.
