This collection of studies on theatre raises the curtain with a tribute to André Vanrie, the former editor-in-chief of our review. Turn the page and you can find out more about the actors and troupes of the Théâtre de la Monnaie under Charles de Lorraine, the contribution of the famous painter Fernand Khnopff to the performing arts, the actress Berthe Bady, the pre-war Ysaÿe Concerts, the theatre at the Palais des Beaux-Arts and the new database dedicated to the performing arts - SCAPIN. The varia shine a spotlight on 15th century Brussels, places of confinement in the 18th century, the world of watchmakers in Brussels, the Burton family of liquor producers and the painter Pierre Duquesne, the creator of wallpaper. The volume concludes with the enrichment of the collections of the Museums and Archives of the City of Brussels.
