Théâtre Jean Vilar, Modern theater in Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium.
The brutalist building features raw concrete and brick walls, housing a performance hall with 654 seats for theatrical productions and performing arts.
Founded by Armand Delcampe in 1968, the Jean Vilar Theater Workshop moved into this new building designed by architect Jean Potvin in January 1979.
The theater presents Belgian and international productions, combining contemporary theater, dance, circus performances, and classical works throughout the season.
The theater is undergoing major renovations with a budget of 12.5 million euros, scheduled to reopen in September 2024.
The exterior walls of the theater display murals created during the Kosmopolite Art Tour international urban art festival.
