The House

We open up our home.
We take it with us because we want to constantly change views, perspectives.
We are modern nomads.


In a traveling house, designed by the architects of agency ZUS, Lizzy Timmers and Marleen Scholten invite various musicians, performers and visual artists to populate it temporarily.

The result is an extremely eclectic music performance with a record of this journey on film.

The two singing curators drag you into the night with African polyphony, punchy electro beats, philosophizing teenagers, steaming instruments and the dance of new living.

“This is not just a theater performance … It is a string of miniature works of art. Bring on that CD.”
Esther Kleuver (De Telegraaf)

“In the late hours, Marleen Scholten and Lizzy Timmers set the mood with a dazzling concert.”
Robbert van Heuven (Trouw)

“The House is more than just a concert. The House is a visually and musically attractive performance in which, with shiny outfits and a dance for new living, the show element has not been forgotten either.”
Peter Zonderland (Theaterkrant)
