Oscar

Tribute to Oscar Carré

Oscar is a performance in the spirit of Carré, where all theatre genres have traditionally been seen, from revue and musical to concerts and cabaret. His visionary view in combination with his colourful and dramatic life are a source of inspiration for choreographer Ed Wubbe. The cinematic, emotional numbers of Blaudzun form the ideal score for the oldest Dutch dance company that gave its very first theatre performances in Carré in 1946.

Farewell to Ed Wubbe

With the entire Scapino dance ensemble, eight circus artists from Codarts Circus, Blaudzun and his five-piece band, many disciplines merge in Oscar . In 2022, all eighteen performances in the Carré ring were sold out. The audience gave Oscar a 9.1 as a rating. With this new series, Wubbe officially says goodbye to Scapino after 30 years.

Ed Wubbe: ' My dream to create a concert, dance and circus performance as an ode to Oscar Carré came true. Blaudzun's music was very inspiring and has become an inseparable part of the performance. And what a party to bring Oscar back to Carré and thus conclude 30 years of Scapino.'

Blaudzun is a singer, producer and songwriter who has left his mark on the Dutch pop landscape with his cinematically arranged, emotionally sung songs over the past decade. Blaudzun: ' In the performance, dancers, circus artists and the music and band members merge. Every day, visitors remind me of the impact the show had on them. And to be honest, the whole thing made just as much of an impression on the makers as it did on the audience. What a wonderful prospect to be able to play Oscar again in 2024 '
