a rite of spring

Toneelhuis / Opera Ballet Vlaanderen / Benjamin Abel Meirhaeghe

Set to new, rousing music by Lander Gyselinck, Benjamin Abel Meirhaeghe presents portraits of three performers. This show is both a tribute to the ultra-classic Le Sacre du printemps and a radical temporary account of women’s sacrifices.

ALL TOGETHER NOW!

Toneelhuis / House Crying Yellow Tears / Suze Milius

ALL TOGETHER NOW! shows the inevitability of personal decisions and how violent a breakup can be. The connection between individual hurt and mutual violence is painfully revealed in a series of deeply human scenes. 

Give up, Old Ghosts!

Toneelhuis / Benjamin Abel Meirhaeghe

A journey behind the curtains of memory, with Mozart’s unfinished Requiem as central point of reference. An encounter between performers from different generations and backgrounds. A memory palace with the atmosphere of a spiritual séance. 

Voor het pensioen

Toneelhuis / Olympique Dramatique

Thomas Bernhard’s play (English title: The Eve of Retirement: a Comedy of the German Soul) is a black and vicious comedy about a society that remains haunted by its far-right past. A birthday party plagued by guilt, revenge, denial and moral decline. Disturbingly relevant to our times.

Guernica Guernica

Toneelhuis / FC Bergman

Inspired by Picasso’s painting named Guernica, FC Bergman creates a wordless, large-scale and hybrid visual show about the impossibility of depicting war. 

Gilles!

Jan Decleir

Thirty-seven years after the premiere of the monologue Hugo Claus wrote especially for him, Jan Decleir once again is taking on the role of Gilles de Rais. A gripping text for all times about war, love and jealousy, loss, depravity, faith and horror.

Toneelhuis / Olympique Dramatique / theater arsenaal

Love and longing as devastating driving force during a family reunion. Chekhov’s De Meeuw (The Seagull) is a wonderful, tender play about young people with new ideas and an older generation that feels threatened by this. For the first time, a repertory play has been entirely translated into and performed in Flemish Sign Language, presented by a mixed cast of deaf actors and actors with normal hearing. 
 

Ne Mobliez Mie

Toneelhuis / FC Bergman

At the end of the 19th century, Marchioness Visconti converted Gaasbeek Castle into a neo-renaissance fairy tale castle, where she posed for photographs dressed as a medieval boy. These photographs are the inspiration for a meditation on alternative identities. A cycle of film vignettes, with an interplay of film and theatre.
