theatre company

Small-scale theatre in Amsterdam: lab for music theatre.

Theatre company based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands (mugmetdegoudentand = thegoldentoothedmosquito). In 1985, an experienced director, and a dozen young, driven, but still unformed actors started exploring unconventional but certainly meaningful new theatre forms. Today, 25 years later, the group is very much alive, with a unique position in Dutch theater.

Theatre company directed by Lotte van den Berg.

Theatre company directed by Boukje Schweigman.

Kassys is a theater-initiative of Liesbeth Gritter and Mette van der Sijs, based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands and founded in 1999. Kassys makes shows in which theater and film are being combined. The codes of these media are (ab)used and placed in their original form along side each other.

Balancing on a thin line of imagination, fiction and (acted) reality Kassys displays the beauty of human success and failure.

Orkater (a mixture of the Dutch words orkest/theater = orchestra/theatre) primarily makes contemporary music theatre, which is always newly written and newly composed. Orkater holds dear the freedom with which performances are conceived, made and presented. The inevitable consequence is that no hard-and-fast policy is followed when putting together repertoire. This means that in some Orkater productions, disciplines other than music theatre have the upper hand. The playing space can vary from studio theatre to municipal theatre, from museum to summer festival.
