PROMIS DEMAIN, is a multi disciplinary festival which is organized for the first time on the 11th, 12th and 13th of October 2019 at the « Hectolitre », in Brussels.

PROMIS DEMAIN, initially a company, a « gathering place », but mainly; a « creative space ».

A small set of creations based on many different (although complementary) worlds. Our purpose is to form a tight collaboration between performers doing performing arts, and other artists creating any other type of art.

We are mixing artistic disciplines driven by every artistic aspect, wishing to democratize all of these different aspects.

We create roaming performances and/or shows, aiming to meet a public as eclectic as various.

Today, in order to accomplish this project, we might need you and your support!

THE FESTIVAL

Throughout these three days, you will get a chance to discover every company member's job across performances, shows, and exhibitions. Most importantly, it will be the occasion to experience these activities through workshops organized by these artists.

This event is mainly based on each person’s creativity and involment.

The audience will travel from shows to shows, from a world to another across this festival. No theme or restrictions other than to sharing with you, a large panel of creations and the desire to make you discover all of these worlds.

All the shows, workshops and performances that you will attend, and to which you will participate, will be the the result of a full week of an artistic residency.

THE LOCATION : L’HECTOLITRE

Hectolitre is a project dedicated to artists who wish to deepen their research, to experiment transdisciplinarity, to form a community and/or connect their practice to the neighborhood.

This basement is located 50 meters from « Place du Jeu de Balle », in the « quartier des Marolles » in Brussels.

In the early 2000’s, it sheltered « La Porte des Sens », one of Belgium’s most famous swingersclub. The place's owner of the place (also known as an antiquarian), gives a very “brutal art” touch inside its unusual architectural volumes.

This club was closed in 2015, and was bought with the unique purpose of dedicating this place to creation and research. Huge works of renovations are planned at the end of this year. The final project will articulate itself around living spaces and creation for approximately 20 residents and guests that will enjoy the opportunity to live in it for a short visit or stay, days weeks, months or maybe even a few years.
