Het TheaterFestival 16
25/08 > 4/09/2016
The TheaterFestival marks the beginning of a new season by bringing the best theatre to the limelight. A professional jury selected the most exciting and important plays of the past season. In addition, Circuit X allows upcoming talent to claim their place: for six young makers, the festival marks the start of a tour. The TheaterFestival alternately takes place in Brussels (in and around the Kaaitheater), Antwerp and Ghent. This year, Antwerp hosts the festival.
