On Saturday 5 October, the iconic Sint Janskerk on the Vrijthof square will transform into a Dance Church for one day. In this peaceful and quiet location, you will find an almost magical place where dance can be experienced in its purest form. Without illusion, decor or theatre lighting.

As an audience, you are close to the dance floor, on the skin of the dancers. So close that the smallest details become visible, and you feel the dancers in all their humanity and vulnerability crawl under your own skin. 

Titled Once is not enough, this event focuses on choreographies by Antonin Comestaz and Joseph Simon that, despite their high quality, have been showcased far too little, sometimes only once. This programme is a plea for a better balance between making / showing and offers the audience a unique opportunity to discover hidden gems by award-winning choreographers.
