Magne van den Berg wrote a painful and alienating text about three children of a wealthy father who is dying.
There are no warm family ties. Mutual confrontations are wrapped in ruthless language games. Whether these succession-like characters will eventually find each other remains the question until the end.
An emotionally charged and comic family story, because precisely where there is deep sadness there is a lot to laugh about.
Volkskrant****: “The strongest thing about this anything-but-everyday play is the acting. Kuno Bakker and Manja Topper prove once again how good they are. Downright exciting.”
Fidelity****: “The perfect match between actors and text and wonderful to watch.”
RiRo Theater Reviews****: “A powerhouse of a text.”
