Met de fantastische muziek van Elton John, een cast met alleen maar musicalsterren en een 14-koppig orkest, beleeft het publiek een onvergetelijke avond uit in de open lucht. Albert Verlinde is trots te kunnen melden dat de internationale musicalster Willemijn Verkaik een van de hoofdrollen zal vertolken.

A new production of Broadway musical ON YOUR FEET! will open at the Beatrix Theater Utrecht this October, as was announced by Stage Entertainment's Managing Director and Producer Albert Verlinde: 'I am very happy that we obtained license rights to produce Emilio and Gloria Estefan's musical ON YOUR FEET!. I visited the show a few times on Broadway last year and it is an irresistible that literally gets the audience on their feet.' The production in the Netherlands is the first production outside the United States. Emilio and Gloria Estefan will visit the Netherlands this week to present the musical to the Dutch audience. Gloria Estefan will also present a Musical Award during Thursday's Musical Awards Gala.

What would you rather do than visit the theatre? Not much, you'd probably say. But here's the answer: visit the theatre and get a backstage tour for a bargain price. This is exactly what you can do during the National Theatre Weekend during the weekend of January 20, 21 and 22. More than 60 (yes, sixty) theatres across the Netherlands will open their doors for shows with ticket prices of maximum €10. 

Albert Verlinde Entertainment will make the cult-movie FLODDER into a musical. The musical will premiere in the fall of 2014. FLODDER is a movie from 1986 about an anti-social, dysfunctional family who move to an affluent, upper-class neighbourhood as part of a social experiment.

The Dutch 2013-2014 season is quickly taking shape. It is already clear it will be brand-marked by the financial crisis raging in Europe. Fewer productions, smaller casts. What's to expect after the summer? BroadwayWorld comments on the most prominent titles.

In the wake of the upcoming Broadway opening of FLASHDANCE, a Dutch touring production will open late 2013, based on the current US Tour.
