Theater De Hofnar (Valkenswaard)
The theater was created after a visit by the two owners of the cigar factory to an opera by Guiseppe Verdi in Brussels around 1919. At that time a lot of commotion arose. More than 80 years later, the new Court Jester once again serves for theater and all kinds of cultural expressions. De Hofnar strives to promote the participation and influence of art and culture in and around Valkenswaard. Amateur and professional performances are organized.
