Hello Zuidas

LET'S WORK!

Out of the city and into the woods! Join us in the Amsterdamse Bos, just 15 minutes away from te Zuidas, for the spectacle of this summer. This royal comedy focuses on the Dutch mysterious King Willem II (1792-1849). Was he the heroic general or the doubting monarch? The flamboyant bon vivant of the political bigot?

Get out of the city and into the woods! Join us in the Amsterdamse Bos, just 15 minutes away from te Zuidas, for the spectacle of this summer. This royal comedy focuses on the Dutch mysterious King Willem II (1792-1849). Was he the heroic general or the doubting monarch? The flamboyant bon vivant of the political bigot?

In this spectacle we delve into the life of perhaps the most fascinating king the Netherlands has ever had. With sharp humor, historical surprises and a considerable dose of absurdism, we tell the story of a man who wanted to be great, but sometimes stumbled over his own shadow. Expect an ambiguous, dazzling performance in which seriousness and satire go hand in hand – just like with Willem II himself.

About the show
In the turbulent historical context of revolutions, wars, takeovers and toxic family relationships, this king wanted to rage, experiment and, above all, be loved. He scattered money and promises. Forgotten, maligned, unloved and perhaps smoothly hidden in the black pages of history, the versatile Sanne den Hartogh (NITE) brings our ‘hero of Waterloo’ back to life in the musical and exuberant music theater performance. Flanked by a full range of family, confidants and court, with special roles for father Willem I, nymphomaniac sister Marianne, schemer Guardian Angel and iconic woman Anna Paulowna.

Immerse yourself in this absurd, historical and rich theater experience, against the backdrop of the magical Amsterdam forest, because the influence of this ‘wild one’ on the Netherlands and all of us is still greater than we think and even extends to the creation of the constitution as we still have it today.

English subtitles every Thursday.
This show plays from june 10th to August 2nd in the middle of the Amsterdam Forest.
Shows are every Tuesday to Friday at 9 PM and on Saturdays at 4PM and 9PM.
