Honesty lasts the longest. But does it really always have to? The doubt of ‘Do I say it or not?’, the slight panic after ‘Oops, I said that out loud!’ or the frustration with ‘That’s not what I meant’: Steffie De Baerdemaeker says what actually shouldn't be said. About the desire for children and parenthood, about relationships and family, about the world and for the first time also about her gender transition. But not in the way you would expect. Which perhaps was to be expected.
After years of performing for teachers with her shows about education, Steffie is now letting go of all inhibitions for a wide audience. The result is a cabaret show about the rollercoaster between thinking and speaking: funny, abrasive, warm, and sometimes confrontational. An evening that chafes and caresses, makes you giggle and roar with laughter. An evening that stays with you.
