A Night of David Ives

Description

Rotterdam English Speaking Theatre presents 4 short comedy plays by 'the maestro of the short form': David Ives.

Sure Thing

Bill meets Betty. Bill says things. A bell intervenes. The bell wants them to fall in love.

Bill says something better. Or something worse? DING!

Time Flies

A romantic date of two mayflies segues into an existential crisis when they discover that they only live one day. Talk about a quickie....

Bolero

A woman’s world slowly threatens to come apart in the middle of the night when she and her husband hear strange sounds and voices. A fight! Who's fighting?

Is her mind playing tricks on her or...is she right?

Captive Audience

What's the purpose of a TV? Keeping you entertained? Informed? Influenced? What if it's something more... sinister. Captive Audience is a short horror comedy about a couple Rob and Laura and a seemingly normal evening at home with their TV.

Prins Alexander Ludovik Stoffel van Stavernijen komt er niet langer onderuit: hij moet trouwen. Natuurlijk wel met een echte prinses, zo een met een tere en gevoelige huid. Met zijn paard Hendrik reist hij de hele wereld over om haar te zoeken. Maar hij vindt haar niet. Dan, op een stormachtige nacht, staat ze ineens voor zijn poort. Een prinses! Hoe komt hij er nu achter of ze een tere en gevoelige huid heeft? Het Kleine Theater bestaat uit Vimala en Anke, allebei actrice. Na jaren te hebben gewerkt bij diverse theatergezelschappen, en in verschillende televisieproducties en films te hebben gespeeld, zijn ze in 2011 een eigen jeugdtheatergezelschap begonnen. Samen maken ze nu al ruim 10 jaar theater voor jong en oud. Er staan 15 voorstellingen op het repertoire, allemaal met veel humor, mooie muziek en gekke personages. De voorstellingen zijn gebaseerd op oude verhalen, liedjes of bekende sprookjes, waar een heel eigen draai aan is gegeven, zodat het niet eng is voor de kleinste bezoeker, maar ook zeker niet saai voor de oudste. ’t ZONNEHUIS OP ZIJN KOP is een jeugdtheaterreeks van Stichting Stadsherstel Cultureel om jeugdtheatermakers een podium te geven en ‘t Zonnehuis toegankelijker te maken voor de buurt. Kom op de derde zondag van de maand (van oktober t/m december 2023 en maart t/m mei 2024) naar ’t Zonnehuis in Amsterdam-Noord voor de leukste familievoorstellingen! Fantasierijk, vrolijk en muzikaal theater voor peuters en kleuters en natuurlijk hun (groot)ouders en begeleiders. We verwelkomen elke keer een ander gezelschap!

Ajeet will be joined by her beautiful band with Raffa Martinez, master on percussion and Aisling Urwin on harp / vocals. Ticket sales starts wednesday November 29th 2023 at 10.00 CET. Premium first row seat or sitting on a cushion in front of the stage Meet & Talk with Ajeet & Band You can meet and talk with the musicians, get your CD signed, ask questions, and connect in a more intimate way. The band will also play the intimate group an acoustic song of choosing. It is a really nice way for people to connect in a more intimate way and create a unique experience! There are 20 meet & greet passes available. * Ajeet Spingtour 2024 Spring brings a sense of freshness and vibrant new life. Emerging after many months in her own healing process, Ajeet embodies the feeling of waking from a deep inner winter changed, opened, deepened.. Those who come to Ajeet’s concerts can expect moments of all encompassing calm, an experience of music as a mode of ritual and connection, and exuberant realms of celebration and release. The audience often feels like it moves and breathes as one with the music, traveling through meditative spaces, inner realms, and then rising together into dance and rhythm. The experience of Ajeet and her band is layered and moves through many rich colours like a dream or ceremony. The intention of Ajeet’s music is healing and connection; a collective and interwoven experience more than a performance. The band draws elements of Latin and African percussion from Spanish-born Raffa Martinez together with influences and instrumentation from Ireland. Aisling Urwin, born and raised in Co. Kerry, Ireland, opens one’s mind to the full musical and emotional range of the Irish harp while Ajeet dances through her intricate soundscape with deep feel-it-in-your-bones percussion on her Bodhrán and playful breathy strokes of melody with the low whistle. All of this created the musical dream in which Ajeet’s soulful voice explores new spaces with every concert. Ajeet’s integral love of folk traditions has lead her to study traditional song and instrumentation in India, Central and South America, and her own ancestral land and home country of Ireland. She is dedicated to gathering and studying traditional music for the rest of her days, and this ongoing relationship shines through musically in intentional and unconscious ways throughout her own musical offerings. These deep rooted traditional influences weave with her own unique softness to offer an unexpected and transporting musical opening for a rich and profound experience. We return to the intimate setting of the beautiful church De Duif where we already had a magical concert and workshop with her before. You may know that Ajeet is on her healing journey and is visualizing to be together in the HeartSpace and to sing together with all of us! To feel and to heal and to celebrate this life with all the challenges that it brings. We need it now more than ever to come together in union, prayer and harmony.
