Andy Peelman - 'Based on true facts'

Andy Peelman became famous almost hastily and accidentally with his portrayal of inspector Koen Baetens in De Buurtpolitie. Since then he grew into one of the most beloved and reviled screen faces of VTM. For example, he was a detective in The Masked Singer, presented Lego Masters and subjects side by side with Dina Tersago all kinds of prejudices and urban legends to a fact check in Ze Zeggen Dat.\n\nIt may surprise you, but also before Andy became famous he already had a life. Andy was and is a folksy boy, who takes life with a large grain of salt and embraces all opportunities on his path.\n\nIn this autobiographical performance, just like De Buurtpolitie ‘based on true stories’, Andy guides the audience with much panache and storytelling pleasure through the toughest stunts and the most hilarious scenes in his life. From his birth – Andy literally fell on his head and still owes a scar to that – to his marriage proposal, which went wrong three times.\n\nIn the spirit of the best tall tales and of folk storytellers at a café, some anecdotes possibly seem so unbelievable that they feel like scripted reality. Yet everything really happened. And if you don't believe that, Andy will make you believe something else.
