Maartje Mikx
Ze vraagt er om (try-out)Theater Heerlen - Kleine Zaal
A personal, funny and moving performance about womanhood, sexuality, expectations and the search for love
Since her divorce, (comedian and single mom) Maartje Mikx has been throwing herself wholeheartedly into dating. Maartje is a member of the Knock Out Comedy Crew. Online, her Maartje on Mondayvideos with satirical tips on life have been watched more than a million times. Now she comes to PLT for the try-out of her first full-length show She's Asking For It. With (seemingly) naive positivism, Maartje discusses in it the crudest details of her dating and love life.
Hilariously recognisable
With guts, self-mockery and a disarming openness, Maartje explores what it feels like to start over. In a mix of sharp humour, honest confessions and direct interaction with the audience, she delves into childhood memories, sexual adventures and old heartbreak. She plays open cards, makes real contact and challenges you not only to laugh, but also to sympathise. And that is the perfect formula for recognisable and hilarious performance for anyone who sometimes wonders: Can I desire this? Can I say this? And dare I stand for it?
