Let's talk about...
A performance can make you think, offer a new perspective, or raise questions. But what does the story on play mean for Eindhoven? Which stories do we recognize, and what perspectives are still waiting to be discovered?
With “Let’s talk about…,” we use performances as a starting point to engage in dialogue with the city. Around these performances, we organize a supporting program where we come together to discuss the themes of the performance, share stories, and discover different perspectives. In doing so, we draw connections to social issues that are relevant to Eindhoven and society at large.
We invite the people of Eindhoven to join the conversation, share their thoughts, and be part of the experience. Do you have a story that deserves to be heard, or would you like to contribute? Send us an email and let us know.
Performances
Throughout the year, we feature various performances as part of Let’s talk about... We organize a supporting program around these performances that provides opportunities for meeting others, exchanging ideas, and engaging in conversation. Check below to find out which performances are part of Let’s talk about... this season and discover what’s happening.
Agenda
Stay in conversation
Let's talk about... doesn't stop when the curtain falls. The stories you encounter here live on in the conversations we have together in the foyer, at the table or somewhere in the city. By listening, sharing and sometimes changing perspective, together we give meaning to what we check and experience.
Want to stay informed about new performances and stories within the label, or contribute to the conversation yourself? Keep an eye on this page.

Kameleon
Sadettin KWhat does it mean to keep changing colorLet's talk about...Thu 3 Dec '26Sadettin Kırmızıyüz wanted to create a clown show. After years in which current events kept intruding on his work, he was ready for something lighthearted. No major social issues. No heated debates. Just a show where he could act. Goof around. Laugh. That plan failed almost immediately. Because how do you create a show that’s about nothing at a time when everything is about something?
