  • In December 2008 Caja van der Poel graduated from The School of Storytelling in England. It was there that she first developed the desire to do something with 'the most beautiful story in the world' and now, a year later, it is happening! Caja theatrically tells the tale of A way of man (De Kleine Johannes) by Frederik van Eeden. Her wish come true is made extra special because 2010 is the 150th year of the writer's birth.

    Jonathan is a boy on his quest to manhood. It is a long journey filled with wonder, love, loneliness and danger. On his journey Jonathan is motivated by his will to discover the one absolute truth. He meets many fantastical characters who claim to know this truth and he follows them, always with full devotion and ready with questions. The story is suitable for adults from the age of 16.

    A way of man is a Noordvolk Home-Theatre Performance !

    From 1st August 2010 the story can be performed at your home or at a location in your own neighborhood. For example on the occasion of a birthday or anniversary, the event of your children 'flying the nest' and leaving home, or even your desire to 'spread your wings'. It is also possible to book A way of man for a group/club activity, also the story could be performed in your home or own choice of venue. (Book club, Home for the Elderly, Library etc.). Jonathan's message is also for young people and is available to Youth Club members and Schools, performed by The Home-Theatre Performance.

    The performance takes approximately 90 minutes and the set up is quite simple as far as background and lighting go. Although an acting space of 3x3 meters is a necessity. Lumsum: 700,- Euro excl. VAT. (Private bookings can be negotiated.)

    We are looking forward meeting you!
