aka Rijgen, dé Oerolhit van 2022
Following the success of Mission Molière and Crashtest Ibsen , Het Zuidelijk Toneel brings Reigen Re-erected (aka Rijgen, the Oerol hit of 2022). Inspired by Arthur Schnitzler's Reigen, in which Schnitzler paints a portrait of sexual morality in the late 19th century in ten scenes. In this version, director Sarah Moeremans and writer Joachim Robbrecht humorously illuminate the mysterious and vulnerable corners of lust and love in our time.
In a relay of scenes, the actors enter a world of security, suffering lovers and pleasure seekers. From tinder date to long-married couple, from webcam girls to asexual, from happy single to open relationship. Taboos and forbidden forms of love are not shunned, yet above all you experience a loving comedy with a deeper meaning.
The press on Rijgen (2021/2022)
De Volkskrant ★★★★ | "Basting is a remarkably cheerful, light, sometimes even very funny performance"
Trouw ★★★★ | "The sincerity with which the makers have delved into the emotional life of one and all creates a receptive atmosphere that makes preconceptions fade away. For that reason alone, 'Threading' may well be called taboo-breaking."
NRC ★★★★ | "Integral sanctuary for repressed feelings and taboos."
