Who'll be the next European Commission President? | The Maastricht Debate, (sorta) summed up

time9 mo agoview0 views

#SchumanShow The lead candidates for the EU top job faced off against each other in the Maastricht debate back in April, and the Schuman Show cast summed it up for you in this sketch!

The EU parliamentary elections may be over, but it'll still be some time until we know who will become the next European Comission President. In our recreation, you'll find on stage the so-called Spitzenkandidaten, a.k.a. the aspirants to preside over the European Commission after the June elections: Ursula von der Leyen, Nicolas Schmit, Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann, Bas Eickhout, Anders Vistisen, and Valeriu Ghilețchi.

All of them had a chance to defend their platform but not all of them shone equally... Whose arguments will stand out? Who has the best chance to become next EC president? Watch now and decide for yourself!

✨ Written and performed by Barry McKeon, Kelly Agathos, Tristan Barber, Jessi Schmale, Paul Dallison, and Daniel Mora. Director Gabriel Soler. Theatre coach & Choreographer Edward McMillan.
