Cloth
This comedy had its premiere in June 2023, then played in various theaters in Zeeland and in August 2024 (together with 'BRAK') in Wijk bij Duurstede.
'CLOTH' is a comedy to savour for the audience as well as for the actors. An unabashed glimpse into the world of actors, in which everything is an illusion but must seem real.
It is three weeks before the premiere when Richard van Berkhove's umpteenth opponent leaves. The actor's erratic temper combined with excessive drinking drives his stage partners all screaming into the curtains. Actually, there is only one woman who can handle the great Richard van Berkhove. Once upon a time, actress Lies Oorthuizen graduated with him from drama school with the same play that is now on the verge of graduation. Then they shone together on stage for years as the perfect acting couple. Until Lies hung up her acting career and went to live on the French Riviera. Under certain conditions, she agreed to come and save the play. That is the beginning of a joust between two people who are each other's dearest enemies. Whether they reach the finish line remains to be seen; the curtain may fall before the premiere. If that is the case, you will receive a voucher for a performance of your choice in this theater.
