Cabaretvoorstelling Veluvine met Frank van Pamelen
Language virtuoso Frank van Pamelen dissects the world with sharp language, humor and music in a surprising, multimedia-supported cabaret performance about truth, confusion and wordplay.
Words matter. Certainly in the world of Frank van Pamelen. Writer and poet. Columnist and comedian. But above all a spoken word artist. On NPO Radio 1, in podcasts and publications, in more and more theatres, on all possible stages, he plays a game with language. He surprises with forms. He tilts your perspective. And all this while policymakers and opinion makers do the same. But then to manipulate power, media and people. In ‘Hebba Nolla’ Frank dissects this phenomenon. He pierces through the idle talk. With cryptic twists and idiosyncratic logic. Inventive songs and PowerPoint poetry. About sense and nonsense. Whole and half truths. And made-up truths, which seem to breathe the spirit of the times ever more pantingly. Frank makes connections and ties points. Places question and exclamation marks. He rhymes and glues everything together. In a virtuoso way he weaves a web of words. Which ultimately matter immensely. Additional information Frank van Pamelen won the Kees Stip Prize for his lightverse oeuvre and the audience award at the Amsterdam Kleinkunst Festival, has a topical language column on NPO Radio 1 and organizes the national LichteGedichtenDag every year. ‘Hebba Nolla is a multimedia project with, from the end of August 2025, a weekly podcast about the Alphabet and in the fall a cheerful language book and a controversial cabaret program. The press about Frank van Pamelen: ‘Excels in linguistic virtuosity’Conjures with language like Johan Cruijff could with the ball.
