Housed since 1994 in the former Aerts brewery in Saint‑Josse, the Théâtre Le Public was founded by Patricia Ide and Michel Kacenelenbogen as a welcoming space where artists and audiences meet in a spirit of warmth and exchange. Its three performance halls host a rich mix of contemporary works and great classics, with a strong emphasis on Belgian playwrights, actors, and directors. The venue also features two on‑site restaurants and a bookshop, making it a lively cultural hub beyond the stage. Known for its accessible, high‑quality programming, Le Public nurtures diverse theatrical voices and fosters an inclusive atmosphere that invites conversation long after the curtain falls.
