Tigers on the Stairs
How does it sound?
How does brave sound? Daring to look a tiger straight in the eye. To really kiss. Becoming the best drummer in the world. That's on Mo's wish list, but in the hospital, nothing comes of this. He has sneaked in his secret friends Indy, Chewboy and Motorman. Because then he is not so alone at night, the pills are not so dirty and he is less afraid. Could they help him make his dreams come true?
Tigers on the stairs is a humorous and moving performance with the percussionists of Percossa, about not being afraid and achieving dreams, directed by Margrith Vrenegoor.
"Toek Numan's compositions and arrangements shine with refined simplicity and are beautifully woven into the story. The screen in the background, the set with its many shutters from which props and players emerge and the costumes, it all shows perfect dosage and thoughtfulness." Pieter Rings, Theaterkrant *****
