La Partida

Share this show

Über-sad: not qualified for the 2016 European Football Championships and no UEFA-cup in 2017. Thankfully Compagnie Vero Cendoya from Barcelona manages to soften the double blow for the fans. In their free open air extravaganza La Partida, five footballers, five dancers and a referee win the hearts of their audience.
The game they play is not a sad duel, as it turns out, but a sublimely choreographed show with slow motion, yellow cards and lucky goalies. A magnificent show with which Compagnie Vero Cendoya double-passes any grumpy football fiend. Score! La Partida is performed at the Beatrixpark on Kruiskampsingel, ‘s-Hertogenbosch-West. After attending a workshop, local youngsters will play an unforgettable part in La Partida.

There are free shuttle busses available from the festivalsquare to the location of the show. These busses leave half an hour before the show starts.
