March 2025 - Theatre Sonnevanck and the NUT return in 2025 with the remake of the successful show Rose & Ariadne. The 'plea for emotions in all shapes and sizes' (Theaterkrant, 2020) is a co-production, in which traditionally Floor Leene's stage text finds inspiration in ancient, Greek myths: this time the story of Ariadne's thread. Directed by Daniël van Klaveren, acting by Karlijn van Kruchten and Patsy Kroonenberg.
At Rose & Ariadne follow the thread of the Greek maze into Rose's room. Ariadne ended up there when she helped the handsome Theseus escape from a particularly unfriendly Minotaur. Now he has abandoned her, much to her fury. Rose stands in her new room, freshly painted after her parents' divorce and move. Rose is not angry. Not even now that they have put her dog Nickel on the marketplace. Because Roos does not get angry, she is not like that... Or is she?
Rose & Ariadne is a tough show about emotions of all shapes and sizes. How do you deal with feelings that overwhelm you? How do you give them a place? Do you always manage to count to ten? An exciting adventure for the whole family: for everyone aged 8 and up. The performance tours various primary schools and can be seen on 2, 3 and 4 May in the NUT studio and 25 May in theatre BonteHond.
