The Belgian theatre-performance-group, Ontroerend Goed’s Handle With Care is theatre reduced to its core: no performers, no technicians, no stage crew — only a sealed box placed at the center of the stage. When the audience arrives, someone opens the box and follows the instructions inside. That’s when the show begins.

Each performance is unique, co-created by the audience through letters, objects, and simple tasks. What unfolds is a collective experience of intimacy, connection, and discovery that is playful and unrepeatable.

This experimental performance aims to ask a simple question: can a group of strangers create something meaningful, together, in the here and now?
