We are still family is a musical comedy full of sharp satire, family arguments, Dutch cosiness and total discomfort. With Paul de Leeuw and Annick Boer as parents who, despite everything, try one more time to have a real weekend with their family. Topical, musical and delightfully recognizable.

In We are family after all, the Polman family goes on a family weekend to the Veluwe for the first time in years. Daughter Hannah (Renée de Gruijl) has big news to share, while father Evert hopes to restore ties with his ex Marjan and their children - Hannah and Pieter (Martijn Kardol). But Marjan does not arrive alone: her new partner Jan Dirk (Bart van Veldhoven), a hyper-enthusiastic life coach and sauna master, joins her. Between shuffleboard, house rules and make-up sessions, they frantically try to keep things cozy. How long will that last, when old patterns and unspoken truths present themselves?

We are still family is the topical, humorous and recognizable musical comedy by writing talent Maarten Hopman, known from De Speld and Even tot hier. This musical is a mixture of cabaret and musical, combining the topical and socially critical aspects of cabaret with the grand and compelling aspects of a musical.
