De nacht van de filosofie

During the Nacht van de Filosofie, six young writing talents between the ages of 15 and 18 will take you along in their search for the truth. The truth? Which truth? Will something be confessed? Will it be awkward? Will it be dangerous? So that you lie awake in the coming nights? Or will poetry provide security in these times of fakery and imitation?

What we know for sure is that the young writers of Meeuw have been writing poems in recent months under the guidance of poet and playwright Yentl van Stokkum. Within these poems they relate as broadly as possible to the theme of truth. On Saturday, September 26, they will present their most beautiful texts once.

Meeuw jonge schrijvers is a collaboration between Meeuw jonge theatermakers and Explore the North Talented young writers receive lessons in writing poetry, prose, theater texts and everything in between. In addition to lessons, they perform at festivals to perform their best texts. The goal is: a new generation of writers with Frisian roots.
