Britt for President
Hey there! Also fed up with all of that political whining? Good news: Britt is joining in! Today’s deep political divides and echo chambers show just how fragile our democracy really is. In this discursive knee-slapper, De Warme Winkel explores whether, and how, it is possible to speak with people to whom science is just another opinion.
"Britt for President ridicules the bureaucratic jargon of the Provincial States beautifully" - de Volkskrant★★★★
"Vincent Rietveld draws a convincing picture in his text of these still shocking crude populistic tendencies, and the inability of the political system to defend itself. But above all, this is a secret ode to democracy, and to the devoted citizens who fight for it relentlessly." - de Volkskrant
"A secret ode to the democracy: that's how the amusing Britt for President should be interpreted" - de Volkskrant
"Bold and full conviction Britt Hartog gives a voice to ordinary people." - Theaterkrant
