Bang, the new front door is a fact for race comedian An Nelissen: she has passed the 70 mark! That immediately means that she has also been on the boards for 50 years and so it is a reason for a double party. Want An is happy that she is still alive and intends to do so for a long time.
With 70 years of life on the counter, An thought she had gathered enough life wisdom to undergo life calmly. Nothing is less true, however. In this show, she therefore wants to look ahead. When she receives a letter from a seven-year-old who asks her a number of pertinent questions, all hell breaks loose. With the help of the audience, she tries to answer the questions and get a look at the future, even though it is becoming shorter and shorter for her.
An Nelissen has been a permanent fixture as a solo performer in Flemish halls for more than 30 years. After countless roles in theater and television, she established her name as a comedian. By some, she is called the “primordial mother” of Flemish comedy.
