Review quotes
… ” This show is so special mainly because of the big show and dance numbers. Performed by a great ensemble of singers and dancers.

He delivers some spectacular scenes, such as “Nikkelen Nelis”, a fabulous choreography of organ-dolls “… (Volkskrant – Hein Janssen).

Moeder ik wil bij de Revue
A traditional Dutch musical with humor on stage and drama behind the scenes of the grand revue in the 1950’s. The most beautiful Dutch songs of the past (including Wim Sonneveld, Gerard Cox and Frans Halsema) together with Simone Kleinsma and Jon Eerd are the perfect ingredients for a guaranteed delightful nostalgic night out. “Moeder ik wil bij de Revue” is from September exclusively seen in the Beatrix Theater Utrecht. “Moeder ik wil bij de Revue” is set in the 50s in the Netherlands. It tells the story of John and Riet Hogendoorn, a famous duo who can’t live with or without eachother. Bob, son of a coal merchant, unexpectedly joins the revue and and from that moment everything changes.
For this production Daan was nominated for a Musical Award: for Best Choreography / Musical Staging.
