Following the success of Liberty Bell and Happy Valley , Het Zuid Land is back with its new, fearless production, Lucky Blue.

Two young people meet. Somewhere in a remote spot, just outside the village. She is the 11-year-old daughter of a teacher. He was her student in high school. She asks him to go back to his senior year. She wants to know what happened—not what others say, not what’s being whispered in the village, but how he experienced it.

In a conversation where facts and stories clash, two young people try to make sense of an event that has thrown the entire village into turmoil and turned their lives upside down. What does it mean to care deeply for someone? Where does longing end and responsibility begin?

In Lucky Blue, Romijn Scholten, together with an 11-year-old actress, takes you on a journey through a thought-provoking performance about the ambiguity of love.

About the Southern Land

The theater company Het Zuid Land creates theater for an adult audience, in which children and adults share the play as equal actors and individuals. Creators Hidde Brouwers and Jorg van den Kieboom do not seek to simplify the world or make it more beautiful than it is, but rather approach it in all its complexity and contradictions. Always with a (slightly) absurd and humorous tone.

Last season, het zuid land won the 2026 BNG Theater Prize for *Happy Valley* , after the company had past event nominated for the same prize in 2025 for *Liberty Bell *. That same year, actress Anne-Chris Schulting received a nomination for the Theo d’Or for her role in that production.
