In Vondels Angels, Sarah Moeremans and Joachim Robbrecht descend into the slipperiest depths of hell. Time to abseil, together with the full ensemble, helmets strapped on and headlamps blazing. From the hottest lakes of lava, they haul up the rebellious angels from Vondel’s world-famous play Lucifer.

Remember how they ended up there? They dared to rebel against God’s absurd decision to elevate imperfect humankind above them (organize your own feedback, you might say, but no).

Now, 400 years after Vondel, humanity appears to have utterly neglected its duty of care toward the world and one another. With blazing words, renewed fire, and merciless questions, the angels once again challenge God, morality, and human failure. Travel toward the gates of heaven as a reservist on the fallen angels’ comeback tour. May Angel’s Intelligence save us all.
