Comedy: The Virtuous Burglar & Silver Wedding


  • Polanentheater 174 Polanenstraat Amsterdam, NH, 1013 WC Netherlands (map)

Also performed 4th - 5th December 2021 matinees at the Polanentheater

Our smash hit show came back for a second run! After sell-out performances in December, we were very excited to announce that the double bill of The Virtuous Burglar & Silver Wedding will return to the Polanen theatre for 4 performances from 31st March to 2nd April.

Dario Fo’s The Virtuous Burglar (translated by Joe Farrell) is a traditional farce that tells the tale of a thief who gets a little more than he bargained for when he breaks into the apartment of a wealthy couple. Mistaken identity, unexpected phone calls and cheating couples all play a part in this hilarious romp that looks at the natures of honesty and deception.

Matteo Pasquini is a contemporary author, based in the Netherlands. Silver Wedding is about a newly married couple who unwittingly become the victims of a scam when ordering furniture online. Fast paced and silly, this comedic play looks at the dangers of trust and internet shopping!

Evening performances  -  31st March, 1st April, 2nd April

Matinee performance - 2nd April

This amateur production of “The Virtuous Burglar” was presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
