The committed cabaret group Niet Uit Het Raam has already sketched a disturbing picture of our egoistic society in its award-winning theater performance Over De Top, and the subsequent performance Natural Selection continues to elaborate on this. The world is dealing with climate change and growing overpopulation. To give nature a helping hand, Tonnie Tolbert (Viggo Waas), Hennie Grijpskerk (Joep
… van Deudekom) and Willie Boerakker (Peter Heerschop) come up with a solution. They set up the Party of the Utility: people who are not useful to society must be deported to the Lowlands, which will be flooded due to rising sea levels. Standard pimp Eddie B. Wahr of course has to pay for it. The power games between the men and their populist intolerant statements indirectly evoke associations with the fuss around LPF, Geert Wilders and Rita Verdonk. NUHR shows a terrifying world of rude manners and thus presents us with a confrontational mirror. As a bonus, the DVD contains an hour-long interview with NUHR on the occasion of their twentieth anniversary. (SvdP)more
