After DEVICKY. (wax the pain away) (CCHA, 2025) Meurman vzw is back with a new production. Prijsbeest (home is where the hurt is) is a horror-musical/electro-opera about a couple who live and work in a slaughterhouse. Years of slaughtering cattle have affected their ability to love each other (physically). To fill the gaping void between them, they mold a child out of minced meat. Kleine Gaby - half cow, half human - is good enough to eat!
A music theater performance with crying cows and mooing people. Met Daphne Agten (Holy Rosita, De slimste mens ter wereld), Sara Gracia Santacreu, and Sofie Joan Wouters (Dertigers), whom we previously saw shine together in DEVICKY. Elisabeth De Loore once again guarantees an undoubtedly fantastic soundtrack. The team is supplemented by Robbert Vervloet, who was seen last season in KAMP (CCHA, 2026). But one question remains: "Can it be a little bit more?" Then buy a ticket.
