A couple of quotes from reviews:

“Though the production plays on silences, the bow remains drawn because of the poignant and simple way Ariane van Vliet delivers the script. What a pleasure to see her back on the big stage!” –  Johan Thielemans op Cobra.be ***

“Ariane van Vliet, who doesn’t quite deliver a monologue, is so convincing that we are swept along on the woman’s muzzy train of thought – Kristien Vanpoucke on Cutting Edge ***

“In Half elf zomeravond, based on Marguerite Duras’ novel Dix heures et demie du soir en été, Bart Meuleman combines sensuality with detached reflection. (…) Ariane van Vliet has the difficult task of averting a suffocating sanctity – which would make the tragic ridiculous – and she does this by injecting a touch of self-mockery into her delicate performance. In the end the knots she ties in her lithe body tell us more than anything else. And when in dignified fashion she eventually cuts through those knots, it is someone else’s wings that carry her off. Half elf zomeravond does not shout about this world but draws you whispering into its own world. And that was long, far too long ago.” – Evelyne Coussens in De Morgen ****
