Huub Stapel: Partisans More Impactful Now That I Know My Family History
Actor Huub Stapel will reprise his role as an older version of Hendrik from the 1995 TV series Partizanen in a new theater production by Toneelgroep Maastricht. Stapel states that discovering his father was briefly a member of the NSB before joining the resistance makes the war narrative more urgent and personal for him. He reflects on the difficulty of being a hero compared to playing one, questioning how he would have acted in similar circumstances. The 71-year-old actor balances this project with his current soliloquy Mannen komen van Mars, managing physical demands while recovering from a frozen shoulder.
