Info

From the WijkJury rapport:
"The performance transforms the theatrical experience into a shared experience, which for us is the essence of theatre. In doing so, it not only embraces the rich history of theatre but also makes us feel its inherent performativity at every step"

Thanks for Being Here is a production about the way we look at things. About different points of view, different backgrounds, different lives. In a game of perspectives we will try to see the world through your eyes. We may even swap roles, just to understand that a common perspective is impossible. And that is worth celebrating, in this ode to all of you.

After Funeral, Thanks for Being Here is the second performance by Ontroerend Goed on the celebration of life. This time, there’s nothing to mourn, only a celebration of a multitude of realities.
