ENTER is all about verbinding leggen tussen het werkveld en de theaterwerkers. Tijdens de profmeeting: MEET THE FIELD ontmoet je als professional de huidige lichting afstuderende theaterwerkers én leer je als student het veld kennen. Ga in gesprek en ontmoet!
Een voorstelling over hoop, moed en (on)geloof. Nadat vreedzame demonstraties in Syrië uitmondden in een allesvernietigende burgeroorlog, bleef één vraag rondspoken bij de activisten die de Syrische revolutie begonnen: wat hebben we verkeerd gedaan?
Good fences make good neighbors: een performatief concert. Waar fysieke afstand wordt afgedwongen, maar de emotionele intensiteit je oproept om je ertoe te verhouden.
Laat je door Collectief P.O.T. meeslepen in een lesbisch liefdesdrama, zoals je dat nog niet vaak hebt mogen zien en horen.
What role can theater criticism play within a festival consisting entirely of work by new theater workers? How do you write about the work of creators who are still in the midst of their development?
Together with the TheaterKrant, ENTER is looking for a group of new reviewers to work during ENTER festival 2026 to write reviews of graduate work from around the country. You don’t have to be an experienced writer or reviewer; Curiosity, a desire to watch performances and your own perspective are most important!
You will be guided in this by two Theaterkrant reviewers, Marijn Lems and Wendy Lubberding, from whom you will receive a workshop on theater criticism, writing and reviewing. They also take care of the final editing of the texts. The reviews will be published via the Theaterkrant.
*ENGLISH*
This role is open to both Dutch-speaking and English-speaking candidates – English-speaking reviewers will focus on the English-language and LNP productions within the festival
