Scènes nouvelles
Scènes nouvelles is the essential meeting place for French-speaking Belgian creativity. Every year, supported by a partner - this time the Théâtre de la Vie - artists, audiences and professionals come together to explore powerful works.
Theatre, dance, performance and young audiences, with six favourite shows, this key moment in the season highlights bold creations, up to now seen only rarely, in Belgium and beyond. A festival which casts light on contemporary challenges, and celebrates the vitality of an ever-sparkling scene.
With the support of Wallonie-Bruxelles International and Wallonie-Bruxelles Théâtre / Danse
Scènes nouvelles (Théâtre National Wallonie-Bruxelles) and Ici Bruxelles (Théâtre Les Tanneurs, Théâtre Varia – Théâtre & Studio, Théâtre Le Rideau) are joining forces to give visibility to artists from the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles. Starting in 2026, the two festivals will merge into a single event Crush, taking place from December 9 to 12.
Mark your calendars!
