Lo-Reninge, In the village of Pollikhove in Lo-Reninge is Saturday the premiere of the comedy Comme Chez Swa. It is the 78 th production for Toneelkring Bartje, who just 70 years. Only for the presentation of 27 march are still a few places left. More than 1,300 tickets flew out the door and that is punishment in a village of 600 souls. What is the secret?

“It is for us also a mystery as to why this year we have a record number of tickets have sold” secretary Frederik Devloo. “We work with good directors who contribute to the quality of our pieces a boost. The team within the toneelkring is one big group of friends where each task carefully read. It will mainly be the oral advertising are causing such a mass of people the way to Pollinkhove. Four years ago, we had an average of 800 spectators, but now so more than 1300. The number of performances increased from five to seven, the special performance for the youth have not taken into account. Between the public sight we mainly locals but they also come from Ostend, Bruges and Kortrijk. That success is great because we put our more than three months of intense in. We know a growing success, yet we are our village is not outgrown. We run entirely on volunteers who all have a busy job in addition to the scene. Play in a larger hall is not our ambition.”

All 30 productions

The actor with the most productions on his counter at Toneelkring Bartje is Danny Snick (55) from Reninge. Professionally he is a mechanic. “The name of our association is derived from the St. bartholomew's church in Pollinkhove”, Danny clearly. “Comme Chez Swa is my eighth production. This time I go in the skin of an Italian. For me, theatre is an ideal outlet. Together with a group of friends grow in the story, eventually the theatre and then enjoy the applause and the reactions. It is indeed remarkable that the people for popular theatre still to come out. Lo-Reninge has a rich tradition as the stage arrives. As found at the end of January the revue place in Reninge with five sold-out halls. The association of The Royaerts Fonteinisten played at the end of november for its annual play for seven sold-out performances.”
