Theater Artemis & Theater Basel

A performance you really shouldn't miss. What do you do when you feel like everything is constantly cheering past you? Boom. What if you hear the dull bass, but have no idea where it's coming from. Boom, boom. Life feels like one big stomping party whose entrance you just can't find. Boom, boom, boom. How long do you keep searching on that cold and deserted industrial estate? And are all those exuberant others really there or are they just ghosts in your head? After a successful tour in the previous theater season, ‘Best wel jammer als je hier niet bij bent’ (‘It's a shame you're not here’) is happily making another honorary tour of Dutch and Belgian theaters. As a master manipulator, Batelaan makes you feel how you can make a group long for something, and what anger and resentment arise when they cannot get it afterwards. NRC ★★★★ The youth performance ‘Best wel jammer als je hier niet bij bent’ blows ‘fomo’ up to absurd proportions. De Volkskrant ★★★
