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?
The Parelsnoer Festival in Laaktheater was a closing event for the project 'Een Snoer van Parels' (“a string of pearls”) that took place in the libraries of Transvaal, Escamp, Schilderswijk, Segbroek and Laakkwartier.
It’s time for some nostalgia! Dennis Wijmer wrote a blues song about the transformation of the Binckhorst. Feel free to listen, be inspired and possibly daydream.
In the late 60s a group of artists decides to settle in a village in the ‘darkest-deepest’ Spain. Today only Felix Cuadrado Lomas still remains there, determined to reflect the landscape which surrounds him: the lands built by those who work on 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.
