Plein Theater month for Keti Koti

Keti Koti month takes place annually in June, in the run-up to Keti Koti on July 1. This month is all about remembering and reflecting on the Netherlands's slavery past and its consequences today.

Plein Theater in Amsterdam Oost, located next to the Oosterpark and the National Monument to the History of Slavery, pays special attention to this moment and this month. That is why they organize various activities in June on topics touching on the history of slavery and colonialism, curated by Peggy Burke and Berith Danse.

Food

You can also enjoy delicious Surinamese food with them! The Eetlokaal next to the theatre is open every Thursday to Sunday from 18:00 and for early activities at least an hour before the activity.

Moksi - alesi's, Heri - Heri, Griet Bana Soup, Peanut Soup with Tom Tom and to top it all off Pom & Pastei (& Paramaribop) on the last Thursday of the month.
