4 playwrights in 2003. Housewife / Hotel Sonja / The King of the Paprika Crisps / Clay

In this collection the included authors cover a wide range of styles: from the philosophical "minimal art" of Esther Gerritsen to the ultra-Dutch stylised realism of Marijke Schermer, from the poetic narratives of Brigitta Hacham to the absurdist anarchy of the Flemish Pascale Platel.

Housewife (Esther Gerritsen) is a monologue about woman who lives in a new housing development- A visit from a pushy saleswoman upsets her precarious poise.

In Hotel Sonja (Birgitta Hacham) a soldier and an officer brag about their heroic deeds and sexual performances. What drives men to commit such attrocities in wartime?

The King of the Paprika Crisps (Pascale Platel). The fiercely independent girl Pascale is in love with Sammy, but Sammy isn´t with her. With his unprecedented magical powers, The King of the Paprika Crisps must surely be able to offer a solution...

Clay (Marijke Schermer). Ten years ago, the love of Dora´s life left her without warning. When he unexpectedly turns up again, Dora´s babbling existence comes to an end.
