How? What? Why? In a world that’s in danger of collapsing under the weight of all the exclamation marks, Boulevard is offering daily asylum to the question marks. They can be found, for instance, in the freely accessible Out in the Open-talks. In these daily conversations theatre maker Emke Idema gives the question mark free rein, in a search to find the connections between the festival and the city. How does an urban ecologist see Nachtschade, a theatrical ode to the aubergine? And why do the members of Wunderbaum read David Foster Wallace (Superleuk) books over and over again? Listen in, join in the conversation and help us find unsuspected festival context.
