Join 'Plant Theatre for Plant People' and become part of a unique artistic parade that brings the renewed Theatre to life. From striking costumes and masks to a symbolic opening of the building, the Plant People set the festive celebrations in motion. A special moment you won’t just witness, but help create.

Experience the festive opening of the Schouwburg with Plant Theatre for Plant People: an artistic protest march that arises from a series of workshops in collaboration with Texture. Participants collectively create striking costumes and masks, designed and developed under the guidance of Grace Ndiritu, Ayla Castelein, Bo Claeys and Marieke Ghys. The procession departs from Texture at 1:00 pm and makes its way towards the Schouwburg. At 3:00 pm, the Plant People will symbolically open the building and guide visitors through its spaces, culminating in the official reopening of the theatre via its new entrance.

A unique moment that you can be part of yourself.
