The Battle of the Cultures is a tradition amongst the three theater associations active at the University of Twente. Each year, an epic battle will determine who can wear the crown of being the undisputed greatest theater association, until the next battle. The three teams of NEST, InSPE and Pro Deo try to win over the judges and the audience in several rounds, displaying everything from musical theater to improvised theater.
During this fun competition, seasoned actors, accustomed to working with scripts for their brilliant plays, will step out of their comfort zone and leave the scripts behind. They will test their skills in the world of improvisation, where quick thinking and creativity reign.
On the other hand, masters of improvisational theater will take on the challenge of sticking to longer formats and (possibly, in some way) scripted scenes, which deviates from their usual spontaneous performances. It will be a clash that pushes the boundaries of both forms of theater and showcases the versatility and talent of each group.
As the audience, you have the privilege of witnessing this collision of theatrical styles and ultimately deciding who will claim the champion title of this year’s cultural showdown. Join us for an unforgettable evening of entertainment, where the lines between scripted and improvisational theater blur.
