What Ever Happened to Mr. Pete?

15 Dec20:30Podiumzaal
Based on the work of Harold Pinter, Samuel Beckett, Luis Buñuel and David Lynch, director Sarah Moeremans and writer Joachim Robbrecht are making a performance about Mister Pete. Airy, crispy and with sufficient philosophical firmness. Generously invested with fun and inventiveness. Sarah Moeremans and Joachim Robbrecht prove once again that lightheartedness can also be very serious. Or as Joachim describes the performance: “There is no rope to tie or hang yourself from.”
HET ZUIDELIJK TONEEL
At Het Zuidelijk Toneel you get to know yourself. In performances and projects you meet the world, you discover new insights and you are surprised. They set up theatrical encounters that stimulate the audience to look at the world differently.
As a contemporary cartographer, Het Zuidelijk Toneel has developed into a unique company: committed, innovative and always focused on the theme of the Other and Being Other.
Piet Menu is at the head as curator and initiator. Together with future artistic director & director Sarah Moeremans and in collaboration with the best theater makers, we tell the stories the world needs. In times when a world scribbles straight through ingenuity and creativity, Het Zuidelijk Toneel shows itself with performances and innovative projects.

“Acteur Joep van der Geest weet Mr. Pete met weinig woorden en terugtrekkende motoriek prachtig gestalte te geven. Aan de andere kant van het oudroze gordijn zal Gillis Biesheuvel als tweede Mr. Pete vast evenveel ontroering en sympathie opwekken.”
