A wordless festival
The first International Stiltefestival is a fact!
A festival for children, a celebration to the senses.
Tasting with eyes and ears, infinite, as the language of imagery is unconfined.
De Stilte has visited a substantial number of countries over the years and it has become clear that children worldwide are not being placed in the spotlights as often as they should.
That is something we want to change!
Without imagination, children are left with little perspective.
When at play a child discovers itself, discovers its world, and discovers its place in this world.
Aside from dance, the Stiltefestival places children in the spotlights, in the vast belief that for children only the best is good enough!
Jack Timmermans,
artistic director Internationaal Stiltefestival
