The Amsterdam Theater Carré is one of the most prestigious stages in the country and Dries Roelvink wants to perform there, but there is one problem. “They just don’t let anything hear.”
It happens more and more that popular artists show the somewhat chic stages. Even Dries Roelvink succeeded; He once performed in the Concertgebouw. And now the Amsterdam folk singer wants to sing some songs in Carré, but the top of the Amsterdam theater seems less enthusiastic about that.
Back in Carré
Dries performed once in Carré, namely in 1996, but would love to want that one more time. “I keep my best memories of Carré because all the greats from the Dutch showbiz have performed there and you feel that not only in the dressing room, but also on stage,” he explains in the Private.
His management has already submitted a request for a second performance. “I already have plans for the next concert in Carré. If it was up to me, I had already printed the posters, but I have not yet received a date from the management on which I am welcome with my orchestra. ”
Four months
Dries already complained in 2019 that Carré never called him back. He said in De Telegraaf: “I have submitted an official application to perform, but I have not heard from Carré yet. I am waiting for the redeeming phone call. “
And now, six years later, there has still been no change in that. Apparently Dries does not understand the hint. He concludes in Privé: “My manager Frank Wisse asked four months ago when a concert is possible. I have no idea why answer has not been done to date. It’s like I’m put in the waiting room. “
