DE BESTORMING

Willem Voogd, Marisa van Eyle & Kharim Amier

Tickets
The Hague, the Torentje. Trust in politics has been at a historic low for some time, and the Netherlands has dropped dangerously in the world happiness index. The newly appointed Prime Minister reflects, together with her spin doctor, on a plan to restore confidence. A Ministry of Trust has even been established.

Then the State Secretary bursts in: the whole of the Netherlands is on its way to the Hofstad. Outside, a seething crowd is rattling the gates of the Binnenhof. Any form of repression will only inflame the situation, so the solution? The ultimate speech. As an ever-growing mass of angry citizens threatens to storm the Binnenhof, the newly appointed Prime Minister and her team scramble under pressure to find the right words to save the country.

DE BESTORMING is a suspenseful and comic Binnenhof drama, inspired by recent political and social developments at home and abroad. The power of language takes centre stage: what impact do our words have on what we do and think? But what do you do when words fall short?
