Martijn Kardol

Imagine you can start all over again. Just press the button and you reset everything. How nice would that be? Martijn Kardol has attempted a fresh start: a child, a new place of residence and a new performance. Sometimes everything just comes together. Too good to be true? Yes, because the Tax Authorities still know where to find you, you turn out to be a little more like your parents than you had in mind and how ‘fresh’ you are after an hour and a half on stage?

We all come to a point in our lives where a fresh start is very welcome. ‘Afraid’ that your history will continue to haunt you? Well, that’s just ‘The Situation’. And no matter how far away it seems, it will come your way someday.

After three full-length cabaret programs and musicals ‘Ver van je bed’ and ‘Stoornis of my life’, he will reprise this season with ‘Fris’. Expect a mix of painfully recognizable situations, absurd twists and hilarious anecdotes. After an evening with Martijn, your abdominal muscles are trained again and you can do things again.
