Theater 't Speelhuis, Modern theater in Helmond, Netherlands
Theater 't Speelhuis is a performing arts venue housed in a converted church building on Kromme Steenweg with a 440-seat hall. The space provides contemporary facilities for theatrical productions, concerts, and other artistic events.
The original theater structure from the 20th century was destroyed in 2011. The venue reopened in 2013 after converting a church building, creating a new home for the city's arts scene.
The name references a traditional Flemish concept of performance and play, connecting the venue to local theatrical traditions. Visitors experience a range of artistic presentations from musicals to cabaret that shape the cultural rhythm of the city.
The venue is accessible on foot from Helmond Central Station or by car with parking available nearby. The location sits centrally in the city and is easy to find.
The building preserves the exterior appearance of a protected church monument while housing modern stage spaces inside. This contrast between historic facade and contemporary interior makes the venue architecturally distinctive.
