West Graftdijk Protestant Church

On 14 March 1994, Stichting Het Plein was established by a number of Graftdijkers. Among the initiators and committee members from the very beginning were Aad van Oosten, Sjaan and Loek Weve, Gerry Bleeker, Ria van Tiel, Marjan Geveling, Carla Peijnenburg and the brothers André and Erik van der Hoff. The reason for setting up Het Plein was the decision from 'higher up' that after a thorough renovation, the church in West Graftdijk should serve as an association building as well as church services for the Dutch Reformed Congregation, making the building available for multicultural purposes.
The first performance of Het Plein was the try-out of the music programme "Damn me!" in September 1995 with Marcel de Groot and André van der Hoff, among others. The show's title immediately gave rise to discussion because the performance was to take place in a church.
