Handle with Care

Lessingtage 2027 by Ontroerend Goed Dates
language German

Handle with Care is a theatre performance in a parcel. No actors, no technical crew – just a parcel and you!

In this performance, the audience takes the helm: invite a group of people for a specific evening and time. Let the audience take their seats. Place the parcel in the centre of the stage. The audience waits. Then someone from the audience stands up and opens the parcel. The performance has begun!
Sitting back and watching simply isn’t an option here! With Handle with Care, Ontroerend Goed puts you in complete control. For one hour, you’ll experience something unique – one-off and unrepeatable. Here. Now. Together. No one is watching. Can you create something meaningful?

Handle with Care was awarded the Breakthroughs in Storytelling Award by Columbia University (USA) and mysteriously connects audiences across Washington, Avignon, Shanghai, London, Ghent, Melbourne and, coming soon, Hamburg.
