FC Bergman was founded in 2008 by six actors/theatremakers/artists: Stef Aerts, Joé Agemans, Bart Hollanders, Matteo Simoni, Thomas Verstraeten and Marie Vinck. Simoni and Hollanders have since left the core team and now work on an adhoc basis with FC Berman. The company quickly developed a theatrical language all of their own, which apart from being anarchistic and slightly chaotic, is essentially very visual and poetic. In their shows the floundering, ever-striving human being has often taken centre stage.
