Tom Lanoye & Behoud de Begeerte | ReinAard - the solo

With ReinAard – the solo , Tom Lanoye brings a full-evening verbal tour de force: a compelling theatrical monologue, based on his bestseller and idiosyncratic vision of the fox. His protagonist is “a superior rogue, whose ancient tricks show in a stunningly topical way how populism works”. Lanoye balances virtuously between the sublime and the banal, the witty and the cruel, between roaring Dutch and shameless, flat Dutch-English — but always swinging like crazy. ReinAard – the solo with Tom Lanoye himself in a starring role. With sophisticated dramaturgy and a rich arsenal of theatrical means, he brings his book to life on stage — sharp, playful, and uncompromising. “A swirling and downright impressive adaptation: a sharp dissection of power.” (De Standaard) * This performance is part of the Reynaert Year 2026.
