How is it possible that in a country as wealthy as the Netherlands, 1 in 13 children still live below the poverty line? How can it be that some children grow up with a refrigerator that is never empty, while other children are sent to bed without dinner? Why does the place where you are born determine how many opportunities you have? And isn't it strange that in the Netherlands, the number of children growing up in poverty is increasing? Even though every year, more money is being spent on combating poverty.

During this performance, we will create a new story together with you. For almost five years, Stichting Nieuwe Helden has been working on projects related to child poverty. For this performance, they interviewed children about inequality and how they would tackle it if they were in charge in the Netherlands. Now, they are joining forces with Het Zuidelijk Toneel for this special performance. Expect a fairytale-like, moving multimedia set and an experience you won't soon forget.
