"Sonderlich and Sons" is a traditional family business that specialises in the provision of tears for every occasion. The Bohemian family welcomes the audience to the castle?s former powder magazine. Accompanied by Balkan klezmer music, they relate the history of the Sonderlich family. As a band of gypsies, they have travelled the world (though not always by choice).

Theater Tieret was founded in 2002. Right from the beginning, the group focused on a mix of puppetry, object theatre and live music- a combination which has helped them attain a solid position in the Flemish (puppet) theatre scene. With powerful acting and a good dose of humour, Theater Tieret `s productions find impressive ways to address the themes of their plays. The group aims to deceive audiences in honest and entertaining ways.
