Elmer (Merel Pauw) on his literary inspiration

Elmer, the stage project of Merel Pauw, is known as a shameless and controversial act in the Dutch music scene. But behind the rapid words and stage violence lies a reader. During the Boekenborrel at De Kleine Komedie, Elmer shows which writers and stories shape him. You get a look behind the scenes of an artist who connects literature and performance.

Reading from favourite books

The Boekenborrel has a fixed format: an artist or writer reads from their own favourites. Not a boring book review, but a personal story about sources of inspiration. Elmer takes you from his bookcase to the stage. Previously, Jan Beuving, Martin Rombouts and Malou Holshuijsen preceded you in the reading armchair.

A drink after the book

After the reading, there is room to chat while enjoying a drink. The first drink is included. The Boekenborrel combines literature with an informal atmosphere, so you can end the afternoon in a relaxed way. Are you interested? Via the link on this page you will find more information about tickets.
