Richard Groenendijk
This performance from the 2026-2027 theater season has previously gone on sale.
After playing the role of Edna Turnblad in the hit musical Hairspray for a season, Richard Groenendijk is back with a brand new solo performance;
Groenendijk has now become an indispensable part of Dutch theaters. His previous performance 'Better for everyone' was praised by both the press and the public and he received the prestigious 'Poelifinario' for this performance, the prize for the best cabaret program of that season. An award that he received for the second time in his career.
According to the press, Richard is a jack of all trades. The reviews call him coarse, subtle, endearing, sensitive, serious and, above all, very witty. A man who delivers a bloodbath of ugly insults, but always makes room for gentleness and valuable reflections. A mercilessly comedic entertainer at the height of his powers. As a reviewer wrote about his previous performance: “All brakes are released and he sets Carré on fire. Then laughter ripples through the room, as we knew from Toon Hermans.”
In this performance 'Luckily you still have me', Groenendijk again takes the audience through his life by his hand. A colorful life in which there is always a fire to put out.
