Vier Crematies en een Scheiding
De TheatertroepToon Hermans Theater Sittard - Laaglandzaal
Comedy with a grief edge full of miscommunication, slapstick and hilariously awkward scenes.
This evening we come together to remember. Old acquaintances. Mixed feelings. Someone who can't stop crying. Another who laughs everything away. Wrong jokes at the wrong times. Speeches that are too long. Who loved the deceased the most? Who has the most right to grieve? People sometimes say, death connects. But grief can also separate.
About the dead nothing but good?
Four Cremations and a Separation is a comedy with a mourning edge, which takes its title (but really only the title!) from the famous romcom Four weddings and a funeral. An evening full of miscommunication, slapstick, inappropriate remarks, old and new conflicts and hilariously awkward scenes. About the dead nothing but good? The Theatre Troupe and Magne van den Berg think otherwise.
The Theatre Troupe
The Theatre Troupe is a collective of six actors that has focused on reintroducing and reinventing the Vaudeville theatre form. Vaudeville comes from voix de ville in the meaning of: 'voice of the people'. The name sums up what the Theatre Troupe wants: to offer an art experience accessible to all.
