Het Zomeroffer (The Summer Sacrifice)
It's going to happen this summer: the car is going to die. He has brought us a lot, individual freedom, adventure, convenience and eroticism, but his time has come. He has to believe it. 'The Summer Sacrifice', to be seen in the Amsterdamse Bostheater in Amstelveen, is based on the famous 'Le Sacre du Printemps' (the Spring Sacrifice) by Igor Stravinsky. In a grand musical theatre spectacle in which theatre, music, song and dance merge into a contemporary but timeless ritual, our beloved car comes to its end. Please note: the start and end times mentioned are an indication and are subject to change. In Dutch with English subtitles on certain days.

About De Warme Winkel
De Warme Winkel is undoubtedly the most controversial theatre company in the Netherlands. In 2019, they performed in the Amsterdam Bostheater with the acclaimed De Drie Musketeers, which broke all attendance records. Then they were spectacular and hilarious; now they go for monumental and poetic.
A large ensemble of actors, singers, and musicians takes on this extraordinary challenge together with the internationally renowned multi-talented Touki Delphine and master musicians from Asko|Schönberg.
Are you ready to give up your car and motorized mobility because, like De Warme Winkel, you are convinced that the earth needs moral donors? There are still a few evenings available; register here and receive twenty free tickets!
