Bert Demeulenaere's Company Details
In 2006 theatre-maker Guy Cassiers became the artistic director of Antwerp's Toneelhuis, Flanders' largest municipal theatre. From 1999 to 2006 he was artistic director of the ro theater in Rotterdam, where he made (among other things) a highly acclaimed four-part cycle based on Marcel Proust's novel "A la recherche du temps perdu".On his appointment in Antwerp, he decided to replace the classical model of the municipal theatre – i.e. a fixed troupe of actors and one or more permanent directors – with a new model. Cassiers invited several other theatre-makers to take up residence with him at Toneelhuis. At this moment performer Benjamin Verdonck, the collective Olympique Dramatique, playwright, director, essayist and poet Bart Meuleman and writer and actress Abke Haring are part of the team. Choreographer Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui is artist in residence. Though young, these theatre-makers have already covered considerable ground artistically. Together they are the face of the multi-talented and versatile Toneelhuis.
