"Daniël Arends is a true stand-up comedian. With his razor-sharp tongue and masterful timing, he will be performing a brand-new show in April at the Parktheater. ‘Another new show by Daniel Arends? Jeez, if that doesn’t come at the expense of quality, I'll eat my hat. Well, maybe just go again...'.

• Director: Raoul Heertje.

Do they know each other or not, and what are they running from? The outside world, another person or themselves? The dark cellar, where they feel safe, forces the past upon them and forces them to dissect each other to the bone. In a race against time, they try to find the exit through an inescapable role-play, in the hope of making it out into the light again. But can you save someone else from the darkness or only yourself? An intimate, poetic and physical duet of two people locked in a dark space.

• With: Abke Haring and Jacob Derwig. Director: Floor Houwink ten Cate.

In een wereld waarin we omringd worden door prikkels, sluiten we onze zintuigen vaak af. In Blind Spot – Eindhoven maakt choreograaf Jelena Kostić zichtbaar en voelbaar wat zich voor onze ogen bevindt.

"A popular series of comedy set in a café atmosphere in the Kameleon. Tables, a bar, and warm lighting. You hear the familiar sounds of gently clinking glasses and music playing. An MC enters, and he asks for your applause. Excitement mounts as the first artist is announced. Who will it be? Comedians and cabaret artists take the stage, from well-known names to up-and-coming talents. Every night is different. Don't miss these evenings if you like to laugh!"

Raf and Mich dig into their family past, uncovering old hidden secrets.

What do you do if your partner leaves you for someone else after 26 years of marriage? It is happening to Herman. And despite, or rather because of, all the setbacks, he is turning into a much nicer person than he was during his marriage. Through trial and error, he learns to live his own life. He throws himself into adventures and, to his surprise, comes out unscathed. Herman is a tragicomedy about a late bloomer: moving and hilarious at the same time. The piece tells the coming-of-age story of a man in his mid-fifties, based on the book of the same name by Marc van Bree.

Valt het je ook op dat mensen vaak bepaalde functies uitoefenen zonder de juiste kennis, ervaring en talent hiervoor te hebben? Denk aan een life coach die zijn zaken thuis zelf niet op orde heeft.
