A priest, a love story, and enough injustice to fill a cathedral — Belgian musical theater goes HARD.
"Daens: The Musical" takes you to the Aalst (Belgium back in 1888) where Father Daens has his battle against the social mis-understandings and equal rights for everybody. At the same time there is a romance growing between Nette and Jan.
Acting
Lucas Van den Eynde burns with holy fire as Daens.
Score
Flemish folk meets Broadway bombast — unexpectedly devastating.
Production
Industrial Belgium never looked this gorgeously miserable.

Director
Frank Van Laecke
