Het Houten Huis
goes abroad
Het Houten Huis produces visually poetic music theatre for both young and old; productions which are conceived to play in a theatre or site-specific location. By bringing together humour, pain and beauty, we create absurd worlds full of struggle and hope.
There are hardly any spoken words in our plays, because the story is told with physical performance, imagery and music. Music is the ‘breath’ of the piece and works in symbiosis with the acting.
Current performances
If you want to know where we are playing right now, check our agenda.
At the moment our performance IK… eh ik (I… um I) is available to tour internationally. If you want to see the performance, we will send you the recording.
Winner Zilveren Krekels (Dutch youth theatre award)
IK… eh ik is the winner of one of the three Zilveren Krekels for “most impressive youth theater production”. Set designer and builder Douwe Hibma was also awarded this year. He received a Zilveren Krekel for “most impressive stage performance” for the set design of IK… eh ik and his contribution to the set design of Ruimtevlucht.
If you want to check older performances in the comfort of your own home, you can watch Hotel Perdu and Droogland online.
