1619 make it short of Alum was really fantastic! The history of 1619 is revived! Johan van Oldenbarnevelt became the victim of a political murder. Both riots and politics prevent the Prince Maurits van Oranje from combating this tragic death of Johan van Oldenbarnevelt.

The decapitation scene was a scene in which you got a lump in your throat, not only because it was a political murder but also because Hiske Eriks (Jan served Johan van Oldenbarnevelt) showed so realistic sadness that went through the bone. ... Beautiful scene!

In the end, the performance ends with the same sound and light as in which Johan is beheaded. Only Prince Maurits van Oranje now stands here in ...

An impressive, funny, sad, tragic performance. I definitely recommend the triptych!
