Theatre production: "Permit, oh permit my soul to rebel"

Not attending the social event? A performance to consider!

An exciting and interesting performance, especially organised for ESSTS attendees, by Aline Breucker & Quintijn Ketels, who are also very kindly performing for us during the opening ceremony at the AfricaMuseum in Brussels, on 7 June 2023.
Aline and Quintijn conceived and directed this performance with the aim of making it accessible to audiences who need a more relaxed environment. They say...

"Our son Antoine, who is now 10, has a complex form of Tourette syndrome. So far, it hasn’t been possible for him to watch our performances. Here in Flanders (northern Belgium), there is still an incredible amount of work to be done on inclusion…….and I want our son to be able to be part of an audience like everyone else. So we decided to take things in hand."
