7 October (after the 20:00 performance)
For every show STET brings, we offer a Spotlight talk after one of the shows over the weekend. In conversation with the artists, this talk puts a ‘spotlight’ on the events and important issues brought up in the performance. This weekend, we’re delighted to announce that this Spotlight talk will be hosted by Eva van der Weerd!
Eva studied Theatre Studies in Amsterdam, Utrecht and Exeter; now, she researches accessibility in theatre at HNTonbeperkt (Het Nationale Theater). HNTonbeperkt has a mission to make theatre visits in The Hague and beyond possible for everyone. Eva is also a critic for Theaterkrant, editor for the Theaterencyclopedie and part of the organisation of Amsterdam Fringe Festival.
