Act Two · Why we make theatre

Stories bring us together.

Next Act Collective is a creative community in Eindhoven. We bring together actors, makers, organisers and people trying something new. The work gives us something to create together, and the connections give us a reason to keep coming back.

Our mission

We bring people together to make English-language theatre, build lasting connections and create memorable nights for audiences.

Our vision

A lasting creative home in Eindhoven, where people from different backgrounds can belong, grow and keep making theatre together.
