Albert Verlinde Entertainment has announced it will make the Dutch cult-movie FLODDER into a musical. The musical will premiere in the fall of 2014 and play a single theatre. Jos Thie is set to direct.

FLODDER, a 1986 movie about an anti-social, dysfunctional family who move to an affluent, upper-class neighbourhood as part of a social experiment, attracted a big cult following, several sequels and a spin-off TV series. Its politically incorrect brand of humour and the mayhem caused by the Flodder family, earned the movie a large cult following.

Dick Maas, who wrote, directed, and produced the original movie, will be involved in the musical version as 'consultant', Verlinde said. Verlinde also stated he hopes the show will be 'over the top and sexy'. Casting has not yet been announced.

Prior to FLODDER, Albert Verlinde Entertainment will bring FLASHDANCE to the Dutch stage, a musical adaption of the movie DE KLEINE BLONDE DOOD, and a reveusical about Dutch comedian Wim Sonneveld.
