Kul ide! Något snabba tempi ibland i min smak.

Ik ontdek nu pas dat de héle voorstelling te zien is. Maakt mijn hele dag goed!

Mario Lesiak (tenor/theorbo) as Kellner is absolutely fabulous, apart from a gifted instrumentalist (lute) he appears to be a real comedian here. And a brilliant duo with actor Adrian Schvarzstein, the Café's owner. After seeing the full hour, I watched it again another night, actually only concentrating on those two (as they in fact wear the performance) The last 9 minutes were not exactly "my cup of coffee", but all the rest, particular the first 11 minutes were precious. Alltogether very enjoyable, with the best compliments from the Netherlands, to Mario and Adrian for their almost British style of acting.
