A new Sinterklaas shakes things up
School Performance
Sinterklaas Concert

There's a new Saint at the helm! At least dear old Santa could use a night off. He's tired, his knees are playing up from all that climbing on the rooftops, his ears are a little sore from all those children's songs. That is why he has enlisted the help of a fresh Supersint, who is a few centuries younger and more modern. This New Saint is going to shake things up.The New Saint wants to bring a breath of fresh air to the good evening. With a trimmed white beard, a hipster mitre and Gucci staff, he is ready to thoroughly knock off any stale traditions. Can't the orchestra and its boring Pieten get a little hipper? The Pieten get the chance to show off sleek moves, rousing vocals and crazy entertainment during Sinterklaas Got Talent. Are they modern enough to be allowed to stay on under the New Saint? The New Saint is a flashy musical Sinterklaas story about whether everything should always stay the same or whether you should throw some traditions off the Pakjesboot. What do you think?
