The Wereldband’s new show SLAPSTICK is an ode to the musical comedian: from the medieval troubadour to Spike Jones and his band, the Marx Brothers and the renowned swiss clown Grock. Based on the imagination of these greatly admired predecessors, the Wereldband is presenting a terrific collection of musical and humorous acts, deeply rooted in the ‘Variété’ tradition. In SLAPSTICK, famous scenes from the likes of Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton and Laurel and Hardy also get an original ‘Wereldband’ twist.


Musical Craftsmanship

The fact that the five members of the Wereldband are true musicians was made clearly evident in their earlier theater shows (Keet, Playground), as well as through collaborations with established groups and artists such as the Residentie Orkest, het Internationaal Dans Theater, Cirque Stiletto, and Brigitte Kaandorp. They use their seemingly endless collection of instruments to masterfully create comic, ridiculous, and often touching scenes with a unique twist. Pure musical craftsmanship is always at the forefront of their whimsical creations. In short, the Wereldband’s musical slapstick is a feast for your eyes and ears!
