Opening Night
DE HOE
- Flanders
- Theater
Inspired by the exceptional cinematic work of John Cassavetes, DE HOE's "Opening Night" embarks on a collective quest for a new emotionality. In a society overwhelmed by emotions, the collective experiments with excess, love, sentimentality and vulnerability.
