Dries Heyneman does not like to boast about himself. That is not necessary, because everyone knows that he is world-famous as De Sheriff in ‘Chantal’, that he is the screenwriter of ‘Bevergem’, ‘Grond’ and ‘Vero Forever’, and that he also plays in all kinds of films and series.
And then he also has a family with a wife and two teenage daughters who require the necessary attention. How on earth does he combine all this? Well: by being at home as little as possible. Therefore Dries Heyneman is going on tour with his brand-new theater show ‘Voor
Normale Mensen'. His greatest pleasure is taking you into a world that at first glance seems normal and acceptable to then slowly, with homeopathic doses, and without you realizing it, go off the rails.
He loves that. That makes him happy. Let yourself be carried away into the unique world of Dries Heyneman, full of blind spots and wrong moral conclusions. Come and watch quickly before he decides to pay attention to his family again. ‘Voor Normale Mensen’ premieres on April 7, 2027 in cc De Schakel in Waregem.
Over Dries
De last years Dries Heyneman was mainly seen as De Sheriff in the fiction series ‘Chantal’ on VRT 1. A fourth season of that is already in the making. In addition, Dries wrote ‘Vero Forever’, a new comedy drama series, in collaboration with Streamz and Play. Dries is not only the screenwriter, but also plays the lead role in it, alongside Emilie De Roo.
But finally Dries is now returning to his natural habitat: the stage. After his successful theater shows ‘Jenny’ and ‘Uit Respect voor de Buren’, it itches again to bang with his third theater show. His previous show, ‘Uit Respect voor de Buren’, can be viewed on Streamz. The press about Dries
“Few comedians who have such expressive mimicry, a whole spectrum of
especially melodramatic facial expressions.
” - De Standaard about ‘Uit respect voor de buren’
“Yet again a very distinct voice in Flemish comedy, carried by great acting, intelligent jokes and sketches and the pseudo-arrogant attitude of a West-Vlaamse Ricky Gervais.” - De Standaard about ‘Jenny’
Realized with the support of the tax shelter measure of the Belgian legislator via Flanders Tax Shelter.
