Historisch Toneel Genootschap

Historisch Toneel Genootschap is a community organisation based in Netherlands working on arts & culture, heritage.

The Historisch Toneel Genootschap is a Haarlem-based foundation that stages theatrical guided tours in historic monuments in Haarlem and surroundings. Amateur actors from the local theatre scene portray historical figures connected to the buildings, including the Doopsgezinde church complex (the Grote Vermaning) on the Frankestraat and Grote Houtstraat. The tours are performed for individual visitors during regular public tours and can also be booked by groups, and the foundation takes part in events such as Open Monumentendagen. The foundation's director and author, Marijke Kots, writes, directs and trains the cast. Tours are in Dutch and cost €12.50 for adults and €5.00 for children under 12, including tea or coffee.
