Shakespeare
In July and August some of the local people of Diever[who?] perform in dramas written by William Shakespeare.[citation needed] Diever is also known as "Shakespeare-town".[citation needed] The plays are being performed in an open-air theater and are famous[citation needed] in the Netherlands. Even in Stratford-upon-Avon people apparently know[who?] that the local people of Diever[who?] perform in Shakespeare's plays.[citation needed] The local amateur theater group[who?] was formed in 1946 by a local medical doctor, Mr. Derp Broekema.[citation needed] Thus in 2006 we celebrated the 60th anniversary of this annual event with the performance of Henry IV.[citation needed]
