The best of Laaktheater from the comfort of your home!
A group of young ladies in Khartoum are determined to play football professionally. They are prepared to defy the ban imposed by Sudan’s Islamic Military government. Their battle to get officially recognized as Sudan’s National Woman’s team is fearless, courageous and often laughable. Through the intimate portrait of these women over a number of years we follow their moments of hope and deception. There is a new spark of hope when the elections within the federation could mean real change of the entire system.
Laaktheater Urban Lab provides art classes, which you can now find online. This class: writing a rap song with teacher Siggi.
Enrique "Quique" Alcatena is one of the most important cartoonists in Latin America. This film delves into his life, to learn how the fantastic worlds that spring from its pages are created. Every time he wakes up, this young man appears in a new reality in which he would have another life. Everybody knows him but he knows nobody. Amnesiac or…., how will he get out of this nightmare?
Laaktheater brings the people of ‘Stage Your Voice’ 2020 into the comfort of your home. Under the guidance of the Residentie Orkest, these talented artists wrote a song about a subject that is very dear to them.
Laaktheater Thuis is the digital platform of Laaktheater. Laaktheater is the theatre of district Laak. We want to bring art and culture closer to the people. Just around the corner, in our theatre you can see and experience art and get involved in many different ways. With Laaktheater Thuis we come to you in your living room. You can watch performances, documentaries and take part in art classes on your mobile phone, computer or iPad.
This is one of the ways we want to make art personal. As Laaktheater we want to make the programme with people who are eager to share their love for culture; their love of film, photography, (youth) theatre or music.
Our programme is created by people with ideas who just drop in and we also meet people with ideas in the neighbourhood. And all these people with all these ideas together result in a wonderful programme that we are incredibly proud of.
Would you like to contribute to our (digital) programme? Then send us an e-mail at: sigrid@laaktheater.nl or info@laaktheater.nl. Then together we can explore what and how we can do something for Laak.
