AUGUST 2009Slow Burn Th eatrepresents Aalst.Directed by David Collins.
In 1999, a couple checked into a hotel in Aalst, Belgium where they proceeded to murder their infant daughter and their young son. In 2005 this chilling case was dramatised.
Produced in theatres and festivals across Europe, Aalst has built a reputation as a powerful and complex piece of modern theatre which raises disturbing questions - questions that have no easy answer.
