Simon Van Schuylenbergh

Simon Van Schuylenbergh (1994, BE) lives and works in Brussels. He obtained his master's degree in Drama at KASK, Ghent, in 2017. Since 2015, he has created several solos with zebras. With these solos, he toured various cities in Flanders and the Netherlands and was selected for JONG WERK Theater aan Zee 2018. Simon lived and worked in the off-space volksroom from 2019 to 2023 and has also been active in the Brussels Artist Commons in recent years. In the summer of 2019, together with Anna-Franziska Jäger and Nathan Ooms, he co-founded the performance platform Ne Mosquito Pas, where a community of Brussels artists reflect on their personal notions of failure and success. Since August 2025, Van Schuylenbergh's new alter ego, Anal Pompidou, has opened a performance cabaret in the centre of Brussels between Sablon and the Marolles. Anal Pompidou is open on days most people put their rubbish out.

As a performer, he has appeared in a revue by Benjamin Abel Meirhaeghe, GERMAN STAATSTHEATER by Micha Goldberg and Rosie Sommers, and Friction by Sophia Rodriguez. He is participating in the Belgian remake of Give up old Ghosts! by Benjamin Abel Meirhaeghe.
