    Sun 15 Oct ’23

    I've been running into myself too often lately. This morning, I left home on time, but once outdoors, I turned out to be partially still in bed. When I came back in the evening, my left-behind-self had blockaded the door. Through the window, I saw him running through the house. Everything had been turned upside down. The emails from my computer were crammed into the refrigerator, my goldfish were swimming around the houseplants, and my dirty laundry was hanging to dry outside. I saw him quickly slip into a painting on the wall. Now, I'm hiding under the bedcovers, but I know he's watching me…

We witness the demise of Zafirah, a young spirited woman who works for the legal department of a government agency, who is raising two children, and who is crushed by the racist wheels of the government.

    Thu 16 Nov ’23

    In this screwballcomedy, we follow antihero Alice, a thirtysomething who is trying to survive in an increasingly success-oriented society. She is accompanied by her half-sister Lizzy on a slapstick hellish tour through modern-day Netherlands – a world populated by criminal barons, quacks, wappies, radio DJs and fascist pregnant women. Wie de fuck is Alice is a brand-new theatrical piece inspired by the strong female roles that typify the work of Greta Gerwig. Kyrian Esser wrote the comedy especially for the six Theatertroep actors.
