Fijt & Fictie

Every two weeks, Fijt & Fictie presents two cabaret artists who bring their newest material to the stage. This edition features Ruth Elings and Marlies Bloemen!** As a girl from the 90s or 00s, you knew one thing for sure: you were going to flute lessons. No discussion. But what if you actually wanted to play a different instrument? Or nothing at all? **Ruth Elings** looks back on her love-hate relationship with the most stereotypical girl's instrument ever with sharp humor, musical flair, and a healthy dose of self-deprecation. A disarming show about expectations, peer pressure, and the power of finding your own tone. **Marlies Bloemen** loves structure and order – her chaotic mind craves getting everything in a row. But when everything becomes too neat and too predictable, life gets very boring. But how do you find the balance between control and letting go? In her humorous, relatable, and musical performance 'Te goed', Marlies takes you along in her struggle with the uncontrollable. And suppose you have everything under control… then you know for sure that something is bound to go wrong at some point, right?
