"God created the day and we drag ourselves through it" (Dimitri Verhulst). And so it is! To help us with that a bitty bit, our dear Lord came up with Carnival. And Björn van der Doelen and Mike Weerts this performance. A master class in Carnival! For anyone who wants to go to the theatre for once, not to spend 2.5 hours (excluding intermission) watching a theatre company with a message, but just to be entertained for an hour and ten minutes without intermission. As simple as Carnival itself. Where almost anything goes (as long as you keep your hands off the women and don't walk in a polonaise) and nothing is compulsory! If you want to sing along, shout out answers, laugh out loud or just enjoy in silence and perhaps shed a tear with an ode to the Carnival. We don't care. Whether you want to drink beer or soda. Whether you want to come in full Carnival attire or in plain clothes. As long as you go home with a big smile on your face. And if you are not careful, you will learn something! And all that for just €17.77! € 11.11 for the ticket and 6 x € 1.11 for each Carnival day for health costs, because it's hard work. No inflation here! Singer and former professional footballer Björn van der Doelen and actor Mike Weerts reveal 'The Soul of Carnival' in a delightful evening of Brabant humour and hoempa music. After many sold-out shows on the Parade in Eindhoven, they toured various pubs in Brabant last year. Now it is time to hit the theatres with their ode to Carnival. A feast of recognition for the real Carnival fan and a revelation for the laymen among us.
