Friday 10th of May at 8 pm and Saturday 11 May at 5 pm
At : l’espace culturel Hangenbieten, allée Charles Frédéric Gerhardt, 67980 Hangenbieten
The Festival of European Anglophone Theatrical Societies (FEATS) will be held in Antwerp from 17 to 20 May 2024. Tagora will be taking part in the main festival on Monday evening with The Poorly-Written Play Festival by Carolyn Gage, and also in the fringe on Saturday with an improvisation show directed by Nikki Lynn Michaelson. We’re offering a preview of both shows, free of charge, in the Espace culturel in Hangenbieten, on 10 and 11 May 2024. However you need to book a ticket here.
