How to collaborate in the performing arts?

Last week we were invited to spend a lovely day at Metarage in Brussels. We were joined by the whole Metarage team, Karen from Ultima Vez, Thomas from le BAMP and a cool bunch of artists associated with Metarage… We talked about “collaboration” in the performing arts field: our needs & desires, as artists, as […]

SHOWCASE: The Origin of the Future – Aline Olmos Steler

19/11/2026

I went to the toilet. And something significant […]

FLUGI – Emiliano Cedillo & Olga Groppo

Emiliano Cedillo & Olga Groppo explore the boundaries of captivity and freedom with their bicycle and violin.

Expect humor, emotion and, above all, spectacle!
