BREAKING • KNOCKED RETURNS!

KNOCKED is an original musical inspired by 100 years of Belgian history. Take a musical journey through time and discover the people and stories of the city from a typical Brussels doorstep. Performed in English by 7 people on stage, Knocked was the first creation of Brussels Musical Creatives in 2024 and is now returning to Brussels in 2025.

Each snapshot was chosen to represent a range of different experiences during the past century, with the return of the Paris Olympics acting as a poignant bookend. Above all, Knocked is a love letter to Brussels: a city full of quirks, stories, and multicultural richness.
