NTTent
For four days in early October, an impressive red tent adorns the Sint-Baafs square in Ghent: the NTTent, a place for radical imagination.
Season 24-25 opens in the tent with a look at past, present and future. Milo Rau's Ghent Manifesto is transferred to the archive, we collect tears for Beyond the Spoken, and new house maker BERLIN celebrates its 20th anniversary. House artists Lara Staal, Chokri Ben Chikha and Ontroerend Goed dive into the themes that intensely interest them. And through events such as a debate on the Disneyfication of Ghent city centre, an AI battle (Prompt up the Jam), and the ritual performance SEGEN, the new artistic leadership of NTGent (Barbara Raes, Melih Geçboyaci and Yves Degryse) showcases the renewed artistic DNA of the city theatre and its three main lines: Art & New Technology, Art, Care & Rituals, and The City as Canvas.
On 5 October, we will celebrate the 125th anniversary of our main hall (Schouwburg) and the 60th of NTGent, among other birthdays, with a way too big party.
