All That Is Wrong
In Once and For All... she burned Barbies. In Teenage Riot she saw adults as caged animals. Koba Ryckewaert is now 18 and knows things are wrong in the world. She just needs to get a grip on them. Shes better at writing than talking, so she draws. What can she do to resolve things? Neither everything, nor nothing. And she will face it all alone. She will make choices, only to stick to them. From the award-winning team behind Once and For All... and Teenage Riot comes the third part in their trilogy about growing up.
Notes:
text by Koba Rykewaert, created by Alexander Devreindt in collaboration with Joeri Smet and Zach Hatch. Third part of the Teenage Trilogy.

Game Of You, A
ne-on-one labyrinth of mirrors and projections. A Single visitor is guided through rooms and corridors, where he meets both real and virtual people, who gradualyy create a character out of him or her, based on the projections of others as well as their own. It is about subjectivity of self-image and how the world is a project of our own experience.

History of Everything, A
Now, inspired by Darwin and Dawkins on the theory of evolution, by cosmology and the realisation that we're but a tiny dot on the timeline, A History of Everything spins backwards to the first fiery bang before leaping to our possible hereafters. A profound rollercoasting journey, this production will make you treasure your place in the history of everything.

Once And For All We're Gonna Tell You Who We Are So Shut Up And Listen
Here's what the company says about this show: "Once and For All We're Gonna Tell You Who We Are So Shut Up and Listen is a mind-blowing and potent look at adolescence through the eyes of 13 astoundingly talented teenagers. In keeping with their collaborative approach, Ontroerend Goed, KOPERGIETERY and Richard Jordan Productions developed the play with creative input from the teen performers."

Smile Off Your Face, The
Enter a titillating world of scents and sounds, sharpen your instincts and allow yourself to lose control.

Teenage Riot
Eight youngsters shut themselves off because they feel like it. they don't know why exactly. In fact, they don't even know what they want or don't want but there's enough lust, frustration, irritation to find out what's shitty about the fact that they'll become someone like you.

Synopsis:
Under the Influence casts the audience as wallflowers at a raucous party where they can look but not participate as a bunch of youngsters indulge in an orgy of simulated excess.
