Tg STAN’s version of Nachtland by German playwright Marius von Mayenburg, was widely performed across Flanders and the Netherlands in 2026. In the play, the family of a recently deceased father discovers a painting by Adolf Hitler while clearing out his house—setting off a chaotic chain of events… On November 14 and 15, you can catch this hilarious satire—which dissects (European) heritage and the resurgence of the far-right—at the ‘Festival de Otoño’ in Madrid, presented with Spanish surtitles. We are very much looking forward to this encounter in Madrid, and we hope you are too.

A production by and featuring Roos De Graeve, Jolente De Keersmaeker, Damiaan De Schrijver, Bert Haelvoet, Scarlet Tummers, & Frank Vercruyssen.

La versión de tg STAN de Nachtland, del dramaturgo alemán Marius Von Mayenburg, se representó ampliamente en Flandes y los Países Bajos en 2026. En esta obra, los familiares del padre, recientemente fallecido, encuentran en el desván, mientras ordenan la casa, un cuadro pintado por Adolf Hitler, tras lo cual la situación se descontrola por completo…  Los días 14 y 15 de noviembre podréis disfrutar de esta hilarante sátira, en la que se analizan con ironía el patrimonio (europeo) y el resurgimiento de la extrema derecha, en el ‘Festival de Otoño’ de Madrid, con subtítulos en español. Estamos deseando que llegue este encuentro madrileño y esperamos que vosotros también.

Una obra de y con Roos De Graeve, Jolente De Keersmaeker, Damiaan De Schrijver, Bert Haelvoet, Scarlet Tummers & Frank Vercruyssen.

After The Misanthrope (1998), Poquelin (2003), and Poquelin II (2017), we present our fourth encounter with Molière at the Festival d’Avignon in July 2026: 1, 2, 3 Poquelin. For this, we have reworked Poquelin I and II. We are playing revised versions of elements from both productions with a partially new cast, and, while we’re at it, we’re also adding some new texts.

The performance will premiere on June 28th at the Lyon Amphitheatre, during Les Nuits de Fourvière. From July 13th to 25th, 1, 2, 3 Poquelin will be performed at La Carrière de Boulbon, at the Festival d’Avignon. The performance will be played outdoors at these two locations. An indoor stage version will tour France in the fall.

In this irresponsibly long and boisterous ode to theatre, you’ll see: Le Malade Imaginaire (The Imaginary Invalid), Le Médecin Malgré Lui (The Doctor in Spite of Himself), L’Avare (The Miser), Le Mariage Forcé (The Forced Marriage), ‘posthumously published’ Les Égotistes (The Egotists), and a few other bits and things…

Paternalism, stupidity, infidelity, violence, suspicion, avarice, selfishness and possessiveness are guaranteed. In short, extraordinarily 2026…

Night has fallen in the West,

no morning star rises,

it is dark now, a Nightland –

In this performance, Jolente De Keersmaeker, Damiaan De Schrijver, and Frank Vercruyssen reunite on stage after a long time, alongside Roos De Graeve, Bert Haelvoet, and Scarlet Tummers.

Germany. Today. Nicola and Philipp, with their respective partners, are clearing out their recently deceased father’s house. When they find an old painting hidden in the attic, the fun begins. The tableau depicts a street scene from Vienna in the 1920s, painted by a certain… Adolf Hitler.

With unapologetic and relentless glee, Von Mayenburg plunges us into the swamp of beliefs, good intentions, and questionable reasoning in which we all desperately try to keep our heads above water…

In short.

An irresponsible comedy.

Or something like that.

A Nightland.
