The premiere of Byzantium

Last Sunday, Byzantium premiered, the first in our premiere triathlon. Byzantium had already played in Belgium for three weeks at Kunstencentrum nona, but on Sunday the twenty‑ninth of March we went full‑on and kicked off the Dutch tour. Schouwburg en Concertzaal Tilburg was filled with a hungry audience, ready for the theatrical closing of restaurant Byzantium.

There was dating, baking, cremating, pacts were sealed, but above all, a rich and wild spectacle was served, full of wine, blood, sweat, and spruzzelporridge. What was it like? Hallucinatory, dark, foul, and according to NRC, “primordially witty.” And the taste? Left you wanting more.

After this first treat for the taste buds, we look ahead to the next two premieres in the coming weeks (Café Brabant on April 5th & Saved Game on April 10th). 
And of course, don’t miss the Dutch Byzantium tour, performing until May 9. Come by and let us treat you an unforgettable evening.
