They are not afraid to try any experiment in form, concept or discipline. The result is hip puppet theatre, a children’s theatre without childishness, theatre that digs and pinches.
The performances are based on original work, books, repertory theatre or commissions from Dutch-speaking writers and composers.

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.
