This autumn Ivo van Hove is adapting/using Jean-Paul Sartre's screenplay for the John Huston film about Freud (Freud: The Secret Passion, starring Montgomery Clift) for the ITA in Amsterdam (formerly Toneelgroep). tga.nl/voorstellingen/freud |

I thought the post title said "Ivo van Hove - Fraud". I thought, I haven't liked everything he's done, but that's a bit strong...

In other ITA/Toneelgroep Amsterdam news: he's also directing a solo for Hans Kesting based on the book "Qui a tué mon père" by Edouard Louis, which sounds promising. Simon Stone is taking on "Op hoop van zegen" with the company.

In other ITA/Toneelgroep Amsterdam news: he's also directing a solo for Hans Kesting based on the book "Qui a tué mon père" by Edouard Louis, which sounds promising. Simon Stone is taking on "Op hoop van zegen" with the company. From Wikipedia: Op Hoop van Zegen (Dutch for "Hoping for the best"), is a 1900 Dutch play, taking place in a fishing village, with the conflict between the fishermen and their employer ending in tragedy with the unsound boat setting out to sea and sinking with all hands and the owner pocketing the insurance money. It is still staged, and remains the most popular play by Dutch dramatist Herman Heijermans. The socialist Heijermans is considered to have meant the play as a criticism of the entire capitalist system, though some present-day productions downplay this radical approach. |
