Toon Hermans excelled at “making something from nothing”. He introduced the one-man show in the Netherlands. With his unparalleled timing and the charismatic way in which he evoked a positive sense of life, he is still unparalleled. This year it will be twenty years since Hermans died. With Lissa Meyvis, Remko Vrijdag and Tommie Christiaan, the Metropole Okest brings its most beautiful and moving songs. Favourites ’24 Rozen’, ‘Lente me’ and ‘Als de liefde niet bestond’: are all on the set list.
