Ellis Meeusen, Steven Beersmans & Tania Van der Sanden - Showcase

A romantic theater comedy for the better bookstore Against the backdrop of an impending bankruptcy due to the arrival of a large book chain, a small independent bookstore offers a refuge to young people with a reading list, those lost in life and love, and a writer with writer’s block. 'Vitrine' is a performance about steadfastness and comfort and about how the power of literature can be greater than you think. What if all our lives are being written right now? 'Vitrine' is a location theater performance that plays in bookstores and refers in content to the romantic comedy. A player's performance with a brand-new theater text that does not shy away from the grand gesture. An ode to the genre of the romantic comedy and a plea for the book trade. In collaboration with Bibliotheek Torhout Tekst: Steven Beersmans and Ellis Meeusen Spel: Tania Van der Sanden, Steven Beersmans, Ellis Meeusen and Idalie Samad
