For the laugh, the wink and the sharp look. From big names to newcomers, you will see cabaret and comedy here.
Cabaret & Comedy at PLT: laugh, think and feel
At PLT, we love both cabaret and comedy. Every season we surprise you with a strong mix of sharp jokes, personal stories and unexpected twists. Sometimes hilarious, sometimes painfully funny - but always real and in the moment.
From young talent to big names
In the Kleinze Zaal in Theater Heerlen and the Toon Hermans Theater, you will discover new cabaret and comedy talent throughout the year. Fresh voices, new stories, on stage near you. But well-known names are also on the stages of PLT. From audience favourites to award winners - they are all there.
What to expect:
- Stand-up comedy and satire
- Musical and physical performances
- Socially engaged cabaret
- Absurd and light-hearted theatre
- Sometimes to laugh at, sometimes to be silenced.
International and groundbreaking
Increasingly often you see comedians from abroad at PLT. With a different accent, but the same energy. Humour connects, across borders and cultures.
Tip: be there on time
Cabaret & Comedy is popular. Many performances sell out quickly, especially at the start of pre-sales in May. Don't want to miss anything? Put that date in your diary.
