Lazarus: David Bowie's last masterpiece
A mysterious, compelling and emotional rollercoaster, created by artist, style icon and world-famous pop star David Bowie. In December 2015, the terminally ill Bowie premiered his last masterpiece Lazarus, but he died about a month later.
In Lazarus, Bowie's alter ego Thomas Newton (Gijs Naber, Golden Calf winner and known for Penoza, among others) takes us through his life, dreams and obsessions. A journey framed by hits such as Absolute Beginners, Changes, Heroes and Lazarus. A must-see theater experience and the opportunity to see, hear and feel the creative power of David Bowie.
Inspired by the novel The Man Who Fell to Earth by Walter Tevis.
Kloosterboer is responsible for building the decor.
Can be seen in the Netherlands for three months from October 3, 2019, in the Amsterdam DeLaMar Theater
Review Lazarus De Volkskrant
The Dutch Lazarus is better than the original from New York ★★★★☆
With their subtle playing and empathetic singing, the Dutch interpreters know how to mask the weaknesses of the text better than their American predecessors.
