William Boeva - Drift (Try-out)

William Boeva has a problem. He is by now so well-known that he is addressed always and everywhere. But he remains friendly. Always a joke ready. That fame makes a lot possible — and at the same time that clashes with a wry realization: what sometimes goes automatically for him, remains a fight for many people with a disability. And that weighs. What if those doors close for him again tomorrow? William feels the pressure to keep pleasing and to keep everyone happy. And if he doubts for a moment, he thinks: “What would Jesus do?” But meanwhile, something else is bubbling. Something that is in everyone: drift. The desire to let go of the brakes. To experience everything he had to miss in his young years. But is he then no longer a good person? In DRIFT, William figures it out: what do you do with your drifts? When are you a good person? When are you allowed to make mistakes? And when are you allowed to just be… human for a moment? Does a manual still exist, or do we have to rewrite it together? Honest, recognizable and above all incredibly funny. You come to watch an apparently perfect performance…. until William decides that perfection is primarily an illusion.
