Premiere in April 2023
« Drache nationale » is a « popular name given to the heavy rain that sometimes falls on Belgium on the national holiday ». 2020 was full of twists and turns… Like a feeling of waking up every day under the « Drache nationale »… So… How to stay positive when everything sucks? Tom, Gaëlle and Denis will answer this question in a sensitive and playful way with the conviction that it is in human relations that part of the antidote can be found. In Drache Nationale, there may be juggling, clowning, k-ways, rain and Hollywood effects with two times nothing. This show will be a wink to to the little light in the darkness to the smile under a national flag to the beautiful in the rotten.
