"My guide changed from an unknown passer-by into a person I wanted to get to know. (…) Verhoeven creates people from those who would otherwise remain extras in the Achtuurjournaal. (Eight o’clock news). The way in which he does that is confronting, intimate and poetic."

"Niemandsland is exciting, moving and exceptional theatre, from the overwhelming beginning in a station hall in Utrecht, where time seems to stand still, to the poetic finale. And furthermore, it is important in these times of blunt polarisation."

"Niemandsland is (...) touchingly intimate."

"What is theatre? This is what you wonder as you raise a flag of Rwanda. Or on the following night, when you follow in the footsteps of Dourand from Afghanistan through the streets of Athens. ‘No man’s land’ makes you wonder if you have become a spectator in the life of ‘others’, or for a moment the protagonist of their lives."

"It is not the form - if we can speak about ‘No man’s land’ with such terminology – but an incredible text and dramaturgy, created from interviews with immigrant participants, that achieves to be quiet and simple, and at the same time to pass like a blade through my mind and soul."
