The Toneelacademie Maastricht is a full-scale theatre organisation with professional staff and facilities. We have ten large, high-ceilinged studios, two of them large ballet studios with mirrors and a barre. A grand piano and two upright pianos are available outside lesson times. The main hall of the Academy is a fully equipped theatre with 100 seats. It’s here that we put on the main student performances. The main hall is also used by Maastricht’s theatre – Het Theater aan het Vrijthof – for its flat-floor productions for the city and the region.

Studying and researching at the Academy are facilitated by our specialised library. This has its own website and Libguide where you can access information online. The librarian is Helen Korpel, Marcelline Stegeman supports the administration. The opening hours of the library are Monday till Friday from 10.00 am till 1.30 pm.

The theatre technicians, Jean-Paul Caelen en Marc Zwietink, ensure that students can work within a professional theatre environment, with all the necessary audiovisual and lighting facilities.

In our AV studio, with cameraman and audio/video editor Jo van Laar, students learn how to work both before and behind the camera.

The Academy also has a well-equipped sets workshop. The workshops and the building is maintained by Frank Spijkerman, Jean Monseweije and Michel Daemen. The props department is run by Marly Lemmens.
