Mixed Portion - 'Sketch' (Directed by Wouter Deprez)

For twenty years, Liesa, Steven, and Julie have been good friends. Every meeting, they make sketches together about the knots of modern life. While playing, the three bosom friends tackle stressful job interviews, increasing gluten intolerances, and relationship therapy. They also philosophize atmospherically about arugula, dermatology, reproduction of turtles, and snail poop. Good chance that you will also find life lighter after this.

The press about SKETCH! “The audience in SKETCH! shrieks, applauds, but also springs up at the end.” © De Standaard **** “The friend-actors enjoy themselves to pieces, to the benefit of that ‘fourth’ player, the audience.” © De Standaard **** “Flanders is hungry for a really good sketch program. We came to that conclusion after seeing SKETCH! where a spectator reported that his chair was wet from laughing.” © De Standaard **** “Pretentious and extremely high-quality!” © Audience reaction “In ‘SKETCH!’ they combine impressive comic craftsmanship with a refreshing search for relevance for the genre. Coached by Wouter Deprez and fueled by a deep love for the tradition.” © Pzazz – Evelyne Coussens “The three undeniably possess the comic potential (the timing, the mimicry, the physique) of authentic cabaret artists.” © Pzazz – Evelyne Coussens “With as a warm undertone: the love, the love for the genre, the love for the audience.” © Pzazz – Evelyne Coussens
