The Good Hope
The Good Hope (from Dutch: Op Hoop van Zegen; more literally: Hoping for the best) is a Dutch play written by Herman Heijermans in 1900/1901.It takes place in a fishing village, with the conflict between the fishermen and their employer ending in tragedy with the unsound boat setting out to sea and sinking with all hands and the owner pocketing the insurance money. It is still staged, and remains the most popular play by Dutch dramatist Herman Heijermans. The socialist Heijermans is considered to have meant the play as a criticism of the entire capitalist system, though some present-day productions downplay this radical approach.
