Interview to Make World Premiere at Riverside Studios This August

This August, the world premiere of Interview, a seductive psychological thriller exploring truth, persona, and power, will debut at Riverside Studios.

Adapted and directed by Teunkie Van Der Sluijs, Interview is a provocative two-hander based on Theo van Gogh’s cult 2003 film. The story follows fading political journalist Pierre Peters, who is reluctantly assigned to profile influencer-turned-movie-star Katya. Both characters enter the encounter with disdain and hidden agendas.

Through multimedia staging, audiences will witness every text, swipe, and private moment from the characters’ phones, bringing their secrets into the spotlight. This is Interview for the post-truth, post-MeToo, always-online age—intimate, ruthless, and addictive.

       

Teunkie Van Der Sluijs said, “Interview is the kind of drama I love most: two strangers, armed with reputations and agendas, trapped in a room. Theirs is a collision of opposites: old media versus new fame, intellect versus mass appeal, honesty versus performance. And beneath every revelation lies something darker: manipulation, fabrication, survival.

Now, more than ever, we live in a world where narrative is power. Where influencer dominance, social media spectacle, and eroded trust makes Interview an exploration of how control of the story means control of reality.”
