The Belfort is Burning / The Belfort Fire

Astrid and Bart find each other on the work floor of the Belfort factory. The spark ignites, they marry and dream of a warm home... until one devastating day everything changes. The fire of June 24, 1988, lays not only the factory in ashes, but also their future. Dismissed due to "force majeure" and then it really begins. Terwijl Bart wants to let go, Astrid chooses resistance. She fights, hopes, screams... but how far can you go without losing yourself? What begins as a love story grows into a battle for justice that leaves no one untouched. Den Belfort Brand(t) is a gripping theater creation, based on true testimonies about love, loss, and the price of continuing to fight. Raw, recognizable, and a piece of Lier history.
