About Broeinest

Music and poetry are like coffee and cake—great on their own but even better together. At Broeinest, Huis van Gedichten (literally: House of Poems) presents poetry at its freshest, showcasing young talent from The Hague alongside international acts in artistic writing and music. But it’s not just about the performance...

The Broeinest talent program offers emerging writers the opportunity to hone their craft. Young people passionate about spoken word are guided from writing in their homes or classrooms to participating in workshops with intensive, professional mentorship. Here, they refine their skills and further develop their voices. With the support of spoken word artist and teacher Tyler Koudijzer, they explore the interplay of music and words and discover what music means to them. Tyler, an experienced performer and word artist, supports and inspires these young writers, helping them transition from page to stage.

As the cherry on top, they present their new work during this program—often for the first time, but certainly not the last.
