To make Trojan Wars happen, HNTjong will transform the theatre into a festival area. A massive group of actors plays an immense amount of characters and takes you on a marathon of adventures and clashes that together form the Trojan Wars. Just like in a Netflix show, except that it’s happening right in front of your face. There will be food and dancing in between performances, and when it’s all over, we will celebrate victory – hopefully.

-|-Playwright Peer Wittenbols turns the epic tales from Homer’s The Iliad into a current-day theatre spectacle about friendship, betrayal, revenge, and love. Director Noël Fischer takes her inspiration from Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones. She explains: “The Greek classics are still so contemporary, because they are about big, primary human emotions: anger and desire. And about the unique phenomenon that separates us from animals: war.”
