We bring presentations with poets and elocutionists of today, poetry set to music, film and theatre. Also, we focus on literary history and we take poetry and prose to the stage in an atmosphere that guides you through the world of a specific author or a specific literary era, from the 17th century to the 1920’s. Original and translated poetry is used in our performances. Generally Dutch spoken, we also bring poetry in English and French along with Dutch translations, and our performance on Oscar Wilde is entirely English spoken. Based in the Netherlands, we have also performed abroad, in Belgium, England, Portugal and Russia.

If you are interested in inviting us for a performance in Dutch, English or French, or perhaps in another language we can find experts in, do not hesitate to contact us through .

We also publish Avantgaerde: Leest der Poëzie, a poetry periodical. This publication is artisanally typeset, printed and bound and is focused on formal poetry (poems with metre and rhyme). Furthermore, we published the CD’s ‘Project Diepenbrock’ with poetry and song and ‘Herman Gorter – Verzen 1890’ with poetry performances accompanied by soundscapes. Moreover, we collaborate with Menard Publishers and make performances accompanying poetry publications by this publishing house.
