a place apart Theatre

Theatre was there for me from the beginning.

Like many, I started acting in secondary school. In my twenties I wrote music for local musicals. Other things took over for a long time.

Brussels changed that. A series of coincidences, brought me back through music, scores for a children's show, then three full musicals: Alice, Oliver, Matilda.

In 2013 I co-founded Caffè Ristretto , and that's where I began directing. Ten productions since then.

Theatre grew out of humanity's oldest rituals. A defined time and space, separated from the world outside. The work is in creating the right conditions: every gesture, sound, and light cue serving a purpose. A suggestion, not a statement. What happens after belongs to whoever is watching.

If it works, something shifts, and the single person feels part of something far larger than themselves. A grain of sand is nothing. But without the grains, there is no desert.
