Huis van Bourgondië Details
The Netherlands present a considerable number of production houses. Places where young, theatre makers can develop themselves artistically. Production houses provide a safe place for this development, and are primarily for production, technical, financial and artistic support.Het Huis van Bourgondië presents a new generation of talented theatre directors. Not only graduates from the Theatre Academy in Maastricht, but also with interesting theatre makers from abroad. This to accommodate young and ambitious makers all over Europe and to create a comfortable and professional working environment.We are located in Maastricht, a city in the most southern part of The Netherlands. The fact that we are situated so close to the borders of Belgium and Germany opens opportunities to different ways of cooperation with our neighbouring countries and with other countries. An example of a powerful cooperation is the successful annual festival CEMENT. This festival is both national and international orientated.Theatre projects of Het Huis van Bourgondië are research projects: it provides the theatre maker with time for development and reflection toward his or her position in the world. Our own theatre and rehearsal studios, located in the city centre of Maastricht, are multi functional, cosy and capable of facilitating a wide range of ideas. In some cases directors even look for ways to express themselves outside the constrictions of the theatre.In short Het Huis van Bourgondië is an inspiring place where fellow-thinkers meet and grow within a professional organisation. The audience is more than welcome to watch a new generation of theatre makers explore, reflect and create in Het Huis van Bourgondië.To facilitate this Het Huis van Bourgondië is subsidised by the Dutch Ministry of Education, Cultural Affairs and Science, by the Province of Limburg and the City of Maastricht.Artistic director: Piet MenuFinancial and production management: Karin van Leeuwen
