Pranay moved to Amsterdam in 2021.
Brought his dreams with him
as other immigrants before him.
Dreams sometimes need a time to come true
- so he waits - he still believes.
But Maybe it is already too late,
maybe everything has been decided.
he builds his own theatre from cardboard
and stages his life. 

Pranay’s dramedy is a mixture of
puppet theatre, storytelling, stand-up and ritual. 
The show deals with issues of identity,
being an immigrant, gay man and an artist. 

Dit ben ik is Pranay's 3rd solo show, 2nd in English.

Pranay Pawlicki is an actor-puppeteer.
He has incredibly interesting skills and academic experience.
I've often applauded puppeteers who don't appear on stage
with a crocodile on a stick or dazzle audiences with dwarf puppets.
These are actors with extraordinary physical prowess, impeccable diction,
and excellent interpreters. And that's precisely what Pawlicki is.
His monodrama, where Pawlicki performs alone and creates
the mood of the performance, tells the story of a forty-something
gay actor who made a life-changing decision.
He moved to Amsterdam and married his partner.
Yes, Pranay Pawlicki tells his story.
And that's what makes his performance unique.
It's impossible to repeat it in this form.
No one, no actor who would take the text "This is me"
and try to recreate it will do it as authentically and naturally as the author.
It's like a rollercoaster. Dynamic, told with humor, beautifully written.
Superbly performed, too. (TeatrVaria)
