_Rietveld’s Daughter _is a theatrical performance about the secret
life of the RIETVELD FAMILY. Audrey Bolder plays Bep, eldest DAUGHTER
OF THE FAMOUS DUTCH ARCHITECT AND FURNITURE DESIGNER, Gerrit RIETVELD.
We see through Bep’s eyes as her father becomes swept up in the
major Dutch art movement _De Stijl_, largely side-lining his family
in the process. The colourful parade of characters that enters their
lives not only changes the course of RIETVELD’s life, but ultimately
Bep’s as well. All this is played out by a single performer, Audrey
Bolder, who switches characters seamlessly from RIETVELD TO DAUGHTER
BEP AND FROM RIETVELD’s wife to painter Charley Toorop, not to
mention the comically-portrayed key individuals of De Stijl movement
itself. Brilliant! A moving and irresistible keyhole view into the
life behind the renowned name. This is a Portland/Utrecht
Friendship City cultural event.Concept, script, performance: Audrey
Bolder
Staging: Titus Tiel Groenestege
