Zürcher Theater Spektakel

Another father onstage: in the third part of his family project on Jewish identity, the Dutch-Israeli theatre director Ilay den Boer interviews his father, the Dutch actor Gert den Boer, on significant biographical events. What starts out as a humorous conversation suddenly changes tone when the son reveals that he has been bullied by members of his football club because of his Jewish faith. An intelligent and strongly emotional performance which deals head-on with both personal and political issues. (esc)
