Damaged Goods

Damaged Goods was founded in Brussels in 1994 and is inextricably bound up with Meg Stuart (1965, New Orleans, USA), the creative force behind the company. The name Damaged Goods arises out of Stuart’s fascination with the imperfections of the human body. In spite of their characteristic and unusual movement idiom, such productions as Disfigure Study (1991), No longer readymade (1993) and No One is Watching (1995) were an immediate success with both Belgiand and European audiences.

Kopergietery

KOPERGIETERY emerged from Speeltheater Gent, the company founded by Eva Bal in 1978. The then Ministry of Culture had asked her to give youth theatre a new elan. This led to Speeltheater Gent, a place where theatre for and by young people was the central feature. Speeltheater Gent only found its own permanent location in 1993: a former factory premises where copper was once founded was given a new use and hence KOPERGIETERY (‘copper foundry’) was born.

De Munt/La Monnaie

De Munt is a federal cultural institution. In 1963 De Munt was officially named National Opera. A major turning point in the history of the Royal Monnaie was the appointment in 1981 of Gerard Mortier as general director. During his directorate, not only the building was thoroughly modernized; he also artistically reorganized the Monnaie's choir and symphonic orchestra and employed new and young staff. All this, and Mortier's choice of a more personal and peculiar repertoire, turned the Monnaie into an opera of international stature and renown.
