Theater en toneel

Raise your hand if you're white!”She raises her hand, and he joins in. “Daddy! You are brown!”But she watches her favorite films in Turkish and sometimes says: “When I grow up, I will become a Muslim.”And who is Sadettin next to her?  He switches between roles: at home the good Turkish son, on stage the culturally responsible migrant and in talk shows the nuanced Dutchman with a multicultural background. For years he saw that as a talent: the ability to adapt and move effortlessly between worlds.  Cargo bike parents have a chat in the playground, and when a police car drives past he no longer feels like a possible description. Her whiteness seems to reflect on him: from “that Turkish man” to “just a father”.  With humor and sharpness, Sadettin shows how we all change color - often without realizing it.

45 minutes before the start, an introduction will be given by Annette Embrechts, dance and theater journalist for de Volkskrant. You can reserve a spot for this free of charge during the ordering process.
