When Harrie Vermeulen (played by Jon van Eerd) is persuaded to impersonate the prospective husband of a young girl, he is thrown into a whirlwind of hilariously priceless complications, where he has to play not just one but four roles. Harrie becomes the innkeeper, the lover, the brother, and even the sister! Together with his servant Jacob Closet, he gets entangled in an impossible web of lies and misunderstandings. In "Harrie and Two Masters," Jon van Eerd, in his own unique way, drags the audience into a hilarious whirlwind of roaring intrigues and comical misunderstandings. And all of this immersed in the setting of a medieval inn where the pot is always hanging over the fire and the beer flows abundantly.
In 'One Zip Too Far', Jon van Eerd portrays a campsite owner trying to keep his head above water in a world full of zippers, tow bars, and tent pegs. As if demanding guests and a snooty neighbor aren't bad enough, the campsite is also threatened with closure. In an attempt to keep the tent standing, our main character sinks deeper and deeper into a hilarious whirlpool of problems, fabrications, and misunderstandings. In this farce, Jon van Eerd is once again supported by a host of well-known personalities such as Pamela Tevens, known from 'Onderweg naar Morgen', and Lucie de Lange, who considered the farce the best reason to return to Dutch theaters.
Jon van Eerd is the driving force behind the renewed success of Dutch farce. Following 'One Zip Too Far,' Van Eerd returns this season with his own piece 'Double Trouble,' in which he plays a cunning plastic surgeon in a famous beauty clinic. He's not actually a doctor and makes his money easily with dubious treatments. But Van Eerd also portrays his bumbling twin brother who is forced to take the blame when the treatments don't go as planned. Lucie de Lange joins the chaos as the director of the institute, getting swept up in the hilarious tangle of mistakes and identity swaps. Once again, laughter proves to be the best medicine!
