“In a cheerful banana suit, circus theatre maker Monki sketches a rainbow of optimism ★★★★” Annette Embrechts, De Volkskrant 60% Banana is an optimistic and enthusiastic view of humanity in a brand new format. With inspiring acrobatics Monki swings and climbs up and down 3 Chinese poles. He artfully uses his artistry to tell us about the hopeful developments in the world with optimism and realism. 60% Banana is a fascinating and touching show, a heartwarming experience that leaves the audience full of energy and hope into the intermission! |

"Exciting to the end. The performers of Ways of being ready find suspense, poetry and eloquence." Theaterkrant.nl In "Ways of being ready" three artists meet and practice the art of being ready. While in circus it is often about exactly the acrobatic climax, "Ways of being ready" focuses on the moment just before the action. With muscles trembling with tension and breath held, they put big smiles on our faces. Ways of being ready" is exciting, incredibly thrilling and often hilarious! |
