Chris Verlaan - Ach, Er Komen Geen Kindjes Van

If something goes wrong in the life of comedian Chris Verlaan, he thinks of his mother's saying: “Ach, er komen geen kindjes van.” Even though this is his life philosophy, he secretly has other plans. Chris struggles with great pleasure through his uncertain, single existence, but secretly he would like to pass something of himself on to the next generation.

Quite difficult, when even looking at a woman is already a challenge. Loneliness is a faithful passenger, fueling his fantasies, fears, and desire for connection. While the world rushes by, he asks himself: When do you really belong? With self-mockery and awkwardness, he shares his life lessons. Will Chris succeed in contributing to society in his own unique way?

The press on ‘Ach, er komen geen kindjes van’ “Chris Verlaan has a unique, distinct voice in the cabaret landscape” - Theaterkrant “The end of his cleverly constructed show is a moving uppercut and a wake-up call in one.” - Theaterkrant
