An Nelissen - 'Tournée Jubilée - The Fomo Monologue'

Pats, the new front door is a fact for star comedian An Nelissen: she has passed the age of 70! 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. That is why, on the occasion of her anniversary, she likes to look to the future. Because with so much past, you otherwise risk forgetting that there is still a future! And so An is throwing a party for her audience! With 70 years of life on the counter, An thought she had collected enough life wisdom to be able to undergo life calmly. Nothing, however, is less true. In this show, she therefore wants to look ahead. The fact is, after all: women live on average 4 years longer than men. That means that women live longer with the decisions they make and the consequences of them. And that is why it is strange that there are still fewer women at government tables than men. So An likes to try to shape the last decades of her life herself by making the appropriate decisions with the help of the audience. Because indeed: the audience helps choose how An cuts the knots she is struggling with. It will be a party to talk about for a long time! An Nelissen has been a 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 and always attracts a fixed, loyal audience to the halls with her productions (e.g., “vagina monologues”, “menopause monologue”, “men monologue”, “happiness monologue”). By some, she is called the “primordial mother” of Flemish comedy.
