On 1st May 2007, The English Theatre of Bruges raised its curtain for the first time with the award-winning production of Caviar and Chips. Our original venue was at the old Cinema Liberty on Kuipersstraat.  A glorious 350-seat cinema in a building from the 15th Century.  We have since moved to a more intimate venue on the Walplein where we continue to produce and host a variety of theatrical productions.

The theatre company is run by siblings Sarah, Clare and Antony.  Although this photo was taken in the 1970s, we still have the same delightful taste in fashion.  Do feel free to get in touch: Contact Us.

Clare Allen has directed over 50 productions across four continents.  With an MA in Performance from Goldsmiths College, London, and over 20 years' experience of directing, teaching and performing, eight of which were in Hollywood, Clare is still discovering the joys of the Meisner Technique and the methodologies of Boal, Grotowsky, Strasberg, Adler, Barber, Meyerhold, and limitless combinations.  An interview with Clare Allen by Jon Misselyn from Moon Art Gallery in Bruges can be seen here: Moon Art Gallery.
