InPlayers is proud to present its Pride 2026 production:
Silver Foxes
by James Berg & Stan Zimmerman
While Amsterdam is starting to get her rainbow 🌈 on, InPlayers is working hard to get ready for World Pride.
We’ll celebrate LGBTQIA+ diversity and togetherness with the play Silver Foxes, by James Berg and Stan Zimmerman. Stan will visit Amsterdam to witness the European premier of their work. At the first two performances, he’ll join us for a Q&A.
The hilarious Silver Foxes explores aging, belonging, adversity, and throwing loads of shade.
Three middle-aged men are dealing with their own personal challenges that come together in this story in funny, touching and suprising ways. A shady "twink" rubs his youth and beauty in their faces, while a plethora of other characters drop by, which are all portrayed by one actrice!
