He departs from the old story of Reynaert the Fox and makes it sharp and recognisable for today. You see how cunning works and how language is used to twist and mislead. The fox is not a fable creature from the past but a figure you still recognise today.

Lanoye plays with language. He switches effortlessly and keeps the pace tight. Balancing between the elevated and the banal, the witty and the cruel, sonorous Dutch and coarse Neder‑English, but always swinging wildly.

ReinAard — de solo is a performance that grates and provokes. You listen to a story that has endured for centuries and at the same time reveals something that is still present today. After the performance, you can buy the book and have it signed by Tom Lanoye.
