Performances

Every night Scala programmes 3 or 4 shows of 20 Minutes each, ranging from comedy to sing-a-song and from plays to mini-musicals. All professional theatre talents are hand-picked by our programming team, to ensure both high quality and broad accessability for a wider audience. On Thursday and Fridays there are always 2 performances in English. On Saturdays, however, we only programme performances in Dutch.

Gift card

A night out at Scala is a great gift to give and to receive. Original and convenient. We have gift cars available for nearly all budgets.

Before, between and after the theatre shows you can enjoy comfort food from our a la carte menu or our 4 course dinner. Both are suitable for shared dining. Our team will ensure you will get your dishes well before your next theatre show!

Join Us as a Volunteer Audience Host!

We're looking for volunteers to join Scala and support the development of dozens of talented theatre artists.
 

As an Audience Host, you'll check tickets, guide our guests to the correct performance space, and explain important house rules. You’ll also be the go-to person for the performing artists.
 

Are you friendly, welcoming, and excited about helping both audiences and performers feel at home? Join our team!

New: Murder Mystery (in Dutch)

Join the game with your team (up to six people) and step into the shoes of real detectives. Interrogate thoughts, unravel clever clues, crack the codes, and find out who did it. Think escape room - but with a theatrical twist. Are you up for it?

The first (Dutch) edition takes place on Wednesday evening, June 4. For €49 per person, you’ll play along while enjoying a three-course dinner of your choice.
