Hou vast! Laat los!

"Hou vast! Laat los!" is a play where theatre and performance blend together. The text of the two monologues was taken from the book "Vrouwenverhalen" (Women’s Stories), written by Deniz Kaptan.

These women’s stories are a kind of secret that is only shared with strangers, not in order to evoke pity, but to let it all out. Something is brewing inside them, ready to boil over and to erupt.

In their world of male domination, it is “folly” that dominates the woman. This gives rise to supernatural situations which, despite everything, put a smile on one’s face.
