Lebbis: Hoe Laat Begint Het Schieten

Hoe laat begint het schieten? Mensen vragen al snel, waarom die titel? Kijk. Ik ga in dit nieuwe programma de wereld weer een stukje beter maken. Dat geloof ik. Zoals de aanhangers van Transcendente Meditatie geloven dat ze uiteindelijk kunnen vliegen. Zoals Jan Peter Balkenende denkt dat hij een Christen is. Zoals astrologen geloven dat het moment waarop je geboren bent en de stand van de sterren onze levensloop beïnvloeden. Zo denk ik dat ik de wereld beter ga maken. In ieder geval voor mezelf, want: verbeter de wereld, begin bij jezelf. En als iedereen dat doet wordt het toch beter.

The very best from six theater programs will be collected and forged into a magnificent and classic theater evening. Includes intermission and show trap. It will be fun. For the gentlemen of Droog Brood – who have finally found a reason to perform precious scenes one more time (there is talk of itchy fingers) – but of course also for the audience, who will be presented with an evening of hilarious highlights and will be able to enjoy themselves immerse yourself in a warm atmosphere of sweet melancholy.
