We are in Rotterdam for the opening of the amazing new Fenix Museum of Migration and an exhibition at The Depot of Museum Boijmans van Beuningen. We were at Amare in The Hague to see NDT1’s Into the Hairy and to report on the concert by Eric Whitacre. Opera Zuid is on tour with one-act operas – Le Villi and Silenzio and in Amsterdam we visit STRAAT and Huis Marseille photography museum.
