A surprising and compelling theater lecture
A performance about… the house sparrow? Absolute. And believe us: after tonight you will hear every 'chirp' differently. After a successful career as a stand-up comedian, Begijn le Bleu turned out to be a passionate bird expert. With his popular podcast 'Fwiet! Fwiet!' and the magazine of the same name, he has won over many nature lovers. Now he brings his fascination to the theater in a surprising and compelling theater lecture.
Because behind that small, everyday bird lies a story that is bigger than you ever suspected. From national history to Mao's China, from African steppes to staggering scientific insights: the house sparrow turns out to be an underdog with a world trip in its wings. Begijn interweaves humor, history and science into a sparkling story full of wonder and sharp insights. Musically he is assisted by the internationally renowned folk duo Naragonia, who add extra depth and magic to this special evening with atmospheric sounds. Little bird. Big story. And a performance that will remain in your memory for a long time.
