Hup Herman!

Hup Herman!

Herman the pot-bellied pig does not like competitions. He thinks it is just a lot of fuss. The chickens, on the other hand, squawk every morning about who is the first, the best, the fastest. One day Herman thinks: I will show them who is the fastest here. All the animals encouraged him. Hup Herman! Hup Herman! But is it really that important, winning or losing?

Illustration: Yvonne Jagtenberg

The production Hup Herman! is scheduled again in season 2023-2024. More information and tickets can be found via the link below:
