Chassé Theater

Chassé Theater is a cultural venue in Breda featuring multiple performance spaces for different art forms. The building stands out with its large glass panels and geometric concrete structures that flood the interior with daylight and create an open architectural design.

The theater opened in 1995 following a design by renowned Dutch architect Herman Hertzberger. The project marked a cultural turning point for the North Brabant region by introducing a new performance center to the city.

The venue presents a varied program throughout the year, combining theater productions, film screenings, dance performances, and concerts. Visitors encounter both local and international works that shape the city's cultural landscape.

The building includes specialized facilities for visitors with mobility needs and provides access to all performance spaces. The open architecture with generous entrances and wide corridors makes navigation through the venue straightforward.

Each hall in the building has specialized acoustics and technology tailored to the specific art form. This diversity allows theater, dance, film, and music to each be performed at their best.
