Following De Idealisten (2017) and De Futuristen (2019), Het NUT now presents the final part of its trilogy: De Kapitalisten. In eight performances, eight theatre-makers meet with visionary investors and experts to explore what a new form of capitalism might look like. In these witty, theatrical talk shows, they offer proposals for a different kind of system.
De Kapitalisten sets out in search of answers to questions like: How do I get rich? How do I free myself from debt — or from guilt? And how do we stop the world from falling apart? Under the guidance of Greg Nottrot and Elke van Boxmeer, Frank Van
Kasteren, Demira Jansen, Mark Kraan, Marcel Osterop, Jibbe Willems, Freek Vielen, Elvis de Launay and Suzanne Grotenhuis/Rebekka de Wit explore new perspectives on money and what it means to have it.
De Kapitalisten is part of the research into the future of money, alongside the performance Doekje voor het bloeden by George Tobal Producties / Het NUT and Belofte maakt schuld by Het NUT / Martin Rombouts.
These performances follow a ‘Pay What You Can’ pricing model. We offer tickets at both lower and higher price points. If you have a higher income, you can choose a higher rate — making it possible for someone with a lower income to select a reduced price.
The Gift Shop
Part of the performance is The Gift Shop: a museum shop where art is sold to help pay off someone else’s debts. This is a collaboration with illustrator and designer Mart Veldhuis, who paid off his student debt with his tapestryEigen Schuld (Own Debt). At The Gift Shop, you’re not just buying art or merchandise—you’re directly contributing to clearing someone else’s debt. So open your wallet and give for someone else! Because, as the capitalists among us like to say: “Money should circulate.” And let’s make sure it circulates in the right direction.
