Moniek Merkx bids farewell to Maas Theatre & Dance: 'I would grant it to any creator to have this audience in front of you once.'

Moniek Merkx will step down as director of Maas Theatre&Dans on 3 February this year. She co-founded this Rotterdam company in 2013, which makes theatre for people from small to large. A forced merger with two other youth theatre houses from the Maas city developed under her leadership into one of the most successful and interesting theatre groups in our country. In our podcast, I talk to her for an hour about how that came to be.

Leiding geven begint bij jezelf. Leer daar meer over in deze podcast over LinC-Artistiek

In deze podcast praat ik met Marjolein Verhallen en Paul Adriaanse van Bestuurskunde, Nanna Verhoef van Media en Iris van der Tuin van Filosofie, en artistiek leiders Lars Ebert en Jente Hoogeveen over wat dat nou is: leiderschap. En we hebben het over hoe je dat kunt leren. 

Geen beter moment denkbaar voor Splendid Isolation. Persoonlijk initiatief sopraan zorgt voor uniek concert in tijden van Corona.

Splendid Isolation gaat over het geluk van eenzaamheid, maar, benadrukt Elgershuizen, dat kunnen we het beste samen beleven. ‘Het moet uitgevoerd worden, want als mensen moeten we samen kunnen zijn’.
Als alles meezit is het zaterdag 19 en zondag 20 december mee te maken.

Everyone saved? Only a few festivals suffered heavy damage.

The total of eight festivals that were given a place in the Basic Cultural Infrastructure thanks to vigorous political lobbying are in the clear. They do not benefit from the extra millions released by the Cabinet on Budget Day to rescue the Performing Arts Fund, because they are not (or no longer) covered by it.
