Servaes Nelissen

Theater en toneel

A man cleans up the overcrowded house of his old mother. She could never throw anything away and hidden money in the weirdest places. When he lets her things go through his hands, his mother automatically comes back to life. Compelling as always. Because it has to be, he helps her again in her best suit. With coffee, cake and chicken soup, shards of memories also come on the table: "Those were lovely people in the Achterhoek. I was really lucky. And then I got you ... After the war I got you. You were a strange boy. " After a dance with mother on a rolling of Chopin, it's time to say goodbye.

Eva Goudsmit wrote a text based on conversations with her father about the relationship with his almost a hundred -year -old mother. Servaes Nelissen, who also wrote, can not only make this complex band of mother and son as an actor/puppet player feel physically felt, but also give a bearable lightness.
