Review: KINKY BOOTS at Château du Karreveld
Vincent Heden's bold, controversial Lola anchors a Kinky Boots that stumbles early and dances late — but Bruxellons' craft makes it sing regardless.…

Review: LA PéRICHOLE at European Theatre Club - Comédie Royale Claude Volter
Operettas are difficult to put on in today’s modern world. Their theatrical language asks for lightness, rhythm, caricature, and elegance, all at the same time. Put too much weight on them and they collapse. Treat them too casually and they become empty.…
Review: TOSCA at La Monnaie
Before the curtain rises, a Pasolini quote appears. It’s a clear warning this TOSCA won’t simply walk through Puccini’s Rome. It’ll filter it through Italian cinema, religion, power, desire, and violence.…
Review: THE ZOO at Brussels Light Opera Company
BLOC’s spring double bill brings together two short comic operas, THE ZOO and TRIAL BY JURY, and it’s the kind of evening that reminds you how satisfying light opera can be when it’s played with genuine skill. It’s colourful, musically confident, and consistently fun. You can feel the compan…
Review: BARTLEBY / LA VOIX HUMAINE at Opéra Royal De Wallonie Liège
BARTLEBY begins with a tease. The curtain only rises a little, just enough to show feet. Expressive. Unexpected and intriguing from the first second. When it finally lifts, Vincent Lemaire’s set reveals itself in clean, minimal lines, white bricks, a black table, black chairs, and a bust. It’s a…

Review: MEDUSA AT LA MONNAIE at La Monnaie
MEDUSA at La Monnaie opens with a sound that feels like it’s coming from somewhere far away, then closer, then right at your throat. An eerie choral orchestration approaches in waves, growing louder and heavier, until the stage itself seems to answer it. A black set begins to move, pivot, and brea…
Review: LUCREZIA BORGIA at Opera Royal De Wallonie Liège
Some evenings remind you why opera exists. LUCREZIA BORGIA at Opéra Royal de Wallonie-Liège did exactly that, in a space that feels fully aligned with what opera stands for, vocal mastery, ritual, and a visual world built to carry myth sized emotion.…
Review: ALICE ET LA PIERRE D'OPAZE at La Sucrerie de Wavre
Art Fantesies has built its reputation in Belgium on family friendly musical theatre with big heart and big visuals, and ALICE ET LA PIERRE D’OPAZE fits that identity perfectly. Conceived for the company's 20th anniversary, as an original sequel to Alice in Wonderland, the story follows Alice as s…

Il Prigioniero & Das Gehege
‘Hope: the final torture...’ Ever since a jailer called him ‘brother’, a prisoner has hope that he will be freed. The door of his cell, however, opens to reveal a long corridor that leads to the stake – the illusion of freedom thus becomes, for him, the ultimate torture. At La...
Dialogues des Carmélites
‘We are not afraid: we imagine we are afraid. Fear is a delusion sent by the devil.’ In his screenplay Dialogues des Carmélites, later adapted for the stage, Georges Bernanos tells the tragic story of the nuns of a Carmelite convent who, during the Terror following the French...
Zeitung
In 2008, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker and Alain Franco created Zeitung. In Zeitung, they focused on choreographic and musical material that dealt with composition, improvisation, and the experience of time, generating a performance to the music of Bach, Webern, and Schoenberg...
Lucio Silla
‘I now realise that innocence and a good heart are far more precious to the soul than false glory.’ ‘La Clemenza di Silla’? In Mozart’s seventh opera, which he composed in 1772 at the age of sixteen, a complete about-turn to clemency made the Roman ruler Lucius Sulla into a...
Leonore
‘Love has guided all my endeavours; true love knows no fear.’ Dressed as a man and under the name of Fidelio, Leonore takes a job as a helper in the jail where her husband Florestan is a political prisoner. By her love, tenacity, and sacrifice she is able to save Florestan from...
Tancredi
Against the backdrop of the power struggle between the Byzantines and the Saracens, the city state of Syracuse is divided by internal conflicts. The hoped-for reconciliation between the rival families is undermined by distrust and by the secret love between Amenaide and the...
Pinocchio
‘It’s natural to think that Pinocchio has always existed; it is impossible to imagine the world without him.’ Italo Calvino put it well: we all know that stubborn, deceitful, but endearing puppet. In Joel Pommerat’s hands, Pinocchio becomes a rebellious boy who throws himself...
