From Holland comes one of the most corrosive productions in this year's Festival. Six characters are in search, as they sit around the table of power, of the speech which will redeem their moral and social responsibilities. Made up of Pasolini texts, this production - an irresistible solo performance directed by Johan Simons and performed to perfection by Jeroen Willems - was awarded the top prize at the 1997 Het Theaterfestival.

 

"The complacency, impregnated with depravation and decadent pleasure with which Jeroen Willems performs these characters, is almost sensual."
Geert Sels - De Standaard
