The Sheep10+
Based on Fikry El Azzouzi’s novel
Twelve-year-old Ayoub is supposed to help his father slaughter a sheep for the Feast of the Sheep. But Ayoub can’t stand lamb’s meat or his father. He prefers to score goal after goal and become a professional footballer. Tensions between father and son and within the Moroccan family run high when the various attempts to slaughter the sheep come to nothing…
The Sheep (Het Schaap) is a light-hearted, musical show in which one actress and two actors play the roles of Ayoub and a whole bunch of other characters. Based on Fikry El Azzouzi’s novel the Feast of the Sheep (Het schapenfeest).

"Imperfections there may well be, but The Sheep does exactly what it sets out to do: acknowledge those who belong to several worlds and fall between two stools. And the need to build bridges between those worlds. "
