Welcome ArtsTalk Magazine Holland

Launched in June 2017, we are the sister publication of StageTalk Magazine in the UK and provide previews, reviews and information, in English, for theatres, art exhibitions, concerts, opera etc, concentrating on cities in south west Netherlands (Noord/Zuid Holland and Utrecht regions). Each venue, museum or gallery has its own page with information and a link to its website. The site is updated regularly and information is always coming in so there is always something new to discover or read about.

If you are promoting any events, please let us know and we’ll probably be able to list them.

Please subscribe to ArtsTalk Magazine using the box at the bottom of the page and follow us on social media using the links below so you are always up to date with the arts in Holland.

Some Highlights This Month

Plenty of good things happening across our area this month with major art, music and dance events.
Perhaps the most anticipated event is OPERADAGEN in Rotterdam which kicks off on 17th and continues until 26th. The high-spot is undoubtedly a performance of Philip Glass’s epic masterpiece EINSTEIN ON THE BEACH featuring Suzanne Vega. Mr Glass will also be at the Oude Kerk in Amsterdam on 11th for the inauguration of the church’s newly restored organ on which he will play a passage from EINSTEIN.

ALL THE WORLD’S A STAGE? European Theatres, Opera & Concert Halls at the MAKK in Cologne.

It is no coincidence that this exhibition is taking place in Cologne whose own opera house is in the process of being rebuilt, but this wide ranging, comprehensive and impressive exhibition includes well established theatres like the NT in London as well as buildings which are still on the drawing board.

EUROPE BETWEEN HOPE AND FEAR – Dominique MOÏSI at de Balie in Amsterdam

Dominique Moïsi, a small wizened man, whose size belies the breadth and scope of his ideas. An anglophile who speaks in clear, measured tones, he outlines his vision of Europe for us, past, present and future.

ROBIN HERFORD

is perhaps a name that not everyone is familiar with. He was responsible for the creation of London’s second longest running show, THE WOMAN IN BLACK, over thirty years ago and has directed all subsequent productions. He talks exclusively to ArtsTalk Magazine editor Michael Hasted about his involvement in the record-breaking thriller since its conception and first performance in Scarborough, England in1987.
