At his earliest convenience

A silent midget

“Poetry is never dangerous. Kidnapping a prime minister, that’s dangerous.”

This is a paraphrase of what the Flemish author Hugo Claus once said in an interview.
Mark Schaevers made a compilation of interviews with Hugo Claus and turned this compilation into a monologue. (Technically it is not a monologue, a silent midget is present on stage as well.)
I enjoyed the play very much but I left the theater with the feeling that an author should stop giving interviews at his earliest convenience.
