Dear Beursschouw-readers, Afloat this summer sea of ebbing and flowing plans and emotions, we hope that this message in a bottle finds you in good health. This letter itself contains a calm little wave. Still far away, rippling in the water up ahead we can already make out the first foamy layer of artists we have had to miss for far too long, now slowly drifting toward the Beursschouwburg. We dream of reuniting here, when the first currents of September flow in. See you preferably-sooner-than-later, B.
