How relevant is a play from 1900 in the year 2020? Director Simon Stone moves the action of Herman Heijermans Op hoop van zegen (The Good Hope) from a fishing village to the arrivals hall of an international airport. Friends and family wait for the return of their loved ones, just as the fishermans wives anxiously awaited the return of their relatives in the original production. The line The fish comes at a price isnt about money, after all its about human lives. Internationally renowned writer and director, Stone (who has featured at Holland Festival on previous occasions with The Wild Duck in 2013, and Thyestes in 2014) is known for his radical remakes of existing plays. With quick, razor-sharp dialogues and a top-notch cast including Maria Kraakman, Chris Nietvelt and Maarten Heijmans, he transforms this Dutch stage classic into a story of great relevance for our times.
