Olympique Dramatique and De Mexicaanse Hond impress with their charming new play

"It’s strange, but not too strange, it’s light but not too light, sinister but not too sinister, funny but not too funny. And the actors are delightful to watch."

"At first Bij het kanaal naar links, written and directed by Alex Van Warmerdam, appears to be having nothing special. But gradually and slowly this play casts a spell over you, by a strange balance you see and feel in all the elements: language, decor, story, characters and acting."

"Thanks to the actors. All six of them are acting remarkably restrained, never overdoing it, and giving it that little bit extra just at the right moment. Wonderful."
