Since 1999, Waas Gramser and Kris van Trier have been performing almost exclusively in the open air. Since that time, in addition to the translation and adaptation of classic plays and other writings, a sort of parallel course has developed involving the building of mobile constructions.
Two seating blocks have been built for tours (2001 & 2008), an open-air library (2010) and a mobile container construction (2013) that provides a workplace for the company.
