To blaat or not to blaat. FC Bergman puts the sheep on a nice pedestal in The Sheep Song #HF21

Wie gezegend is met de achternaam ‘schaap’ weet niet alleen dat hij uit een rijk en eerbaar geslacht stamt, maar kent ook alle spreekwoorden, gezegden en al dan niet beledigend bedoelde naamgrappen uit het hoofd. Tot en met kameraadschappelijk blatende chefs kunst. Dan is het feit dat het Vlaamse theatergezelschap FC Bergman een voorstelling maakt met als titel ‘The Sheep…

After a year and a half at home, Boogaerdt/VanderSchoot's Fremdkörper with testing access is pretty tough

There are reasons not to live in Belgium, but yesterday I was intensely longing for an evening with my southern neighbours. After all, they have 'testing for admission' in the cultural sector just a little better regulated than here. When I attended a 'testing for access' performance in Antwerp, there was a tent in front of the theatre entrance where I walked in, with a time appointment, a...

Holland Festival presents scalable programme: It's about time.  

A night walk where, for once, it is not about talking to each other, or exercising the muscles, but about being very aware of where you are. Mindfulness as a theatrical experience, then, and if all the coronagraph remains against us, the only part of the Holland Festival that can go on live because of sufficient distance and outside. It needs to be that bad...

Stef Aerts directs 3D show JR at @hollandfestival: 'To go from 700 pages of real literature to a manageable stage text doesn't just happen.'

Listen to an atmospheric impression and the full interview with Stef Aerts here. Children have the ability to turn adults' worlds upside down. Eleven-year-old JR is really getting into it. On a school trip, he learns how the stock market works and then turns it to his will. In doing so, unhampered by a prefrontal cortex, that part of the brain...

FC Bergman geeft letterlijk en figuurlijk (de) ruimte

de sfeer Het is 30 graden in Den Bosch. Mensen met koptelefoons op klappen voor iets dat wij, de voorbijgangers, niet zien.  Bij een winkelcentrum rollen meisjes met maskers over de grond. Overal is reuring. Festival Boulevard is in volle gang en de hele stad lijkt mee te doen. De terrassen zijn vol en de stemming is opperbest. Ik baan mij…

What Bert Hana can do, you don't learn at any school: turn your own life into art. #njc10

Wonderful though theatre is. The closing night of the Autumn Collection festival made me realise once again that the best actors do not always make the best performance. Expressiveness depends on more than acting talent and a proven literary text.

Two idols and lots of cute girls at Saturday's Autumn Collection #njc10

Het viel op: wat een hoop leuke meisjes in Theater Kikker. Zou het door de programmering komen? Nu waren er een hoop leuke mannen om uit te kiezen op zaterdagavond. De stoere acteerbeesten van FC Bergman bijvoorbeeld, of de androgyne Nik van den Berg, of misschien de ogenschijnlijk lieve Bert Hana. En anders was er altijd nog DJ Oscar Kocken,…
