Het gaat goed met Roué Verveer. De Volkskrant vindt hem "verfrissend geëngageerd" en het NRC Handelsblad roemt zijn fantasie: "Hij vuurt grappen ogenschijnlijk uit de losse pols af, alsof hij ze ter plekke verzint." Geen wonder, want Roué maakt al jaren furore bij de Comedytrain met zijn mooie verhalen en scherpe improvisaties en in zijn theatershows buldert de gulle lach door de zaal. Maar als het goed met je gaat, neemt de angst om het weer kwijt te raken toe. En dat is precies het verhaal achter 'Voorwaardelijk Vrij'. Verveer prikkelt, stemt tot nadenken, en doet dat met heel veel humor. Voorwaardelijk Vrij is opgenomen in De Meervaart in Amsterdam.
In his hilarious show "Wortels" (Roots), Klaas van der Eerden takes the audience back to his roots. Raised in the 1970s in a small farming village above Amsterdam in a hippie family, Klaas lets loose with his funny stories, characters, and improvisations. "Wortels is brimming with original ideas and a high density of jokes," wrote the AD newspaper. De Volkskrant enjoyed the "tasty stories" and called Wortel "an entertaining and meaningful program." And we haven't even mentioned the highly comical musical highlights with which Klaas constantly surprises his audience. Conclusion: an energetic, full-blooded entertainer who gives 100% every night and gets every audience going wild!
Wim Helsen is always witty, surprising, and pertinent: whether he is expressing his indignation as a good-natured soup distributor in 'Heden Soup!', preaching passion as a cunning demagogue in 'Bij mij zijt ge veilig', or championing better poetry as the Best Friend of Poetry in 'Man Bijt Hond'. Helsen mixes the best of cabaret, theater monologue, and poetry into a disarming individuality, bringing innovation and wonder to the stage.
