Stage director - Playwright - Artist
News:
* My new play Landscape with Radioactive Dogs will be produced by Theater Bellevue (Amsterdam) and directed by myself in late 2025/early 2026. There are even rumours of an international tour..
* This fall I will direct my own adaptation of Den Politiske Kannestøperen by 18th century superstas Ludvig Holberg at Teater Ibsen in Sien, Norway.
* Also, I have started researching the physical and mental infrastructure of the Norwegian oil wealth: Prosjekt 1969 - and I gave a reading about the topic at Dramatikkens Hus earlier this year (in norwegian): LISTEN HERE!
* Landmarks Collective have started working on our next creation, Treework, set to premiere at Oerol festival 2025!
* Stonework had a successful tour of the Netherlands last fall. During the spring of 2023 the show returned to Utrecht and to Black Box teater in Oslo (during Heddadagene) and to a huge audience at STUK Leuven (BE) during their Playground Festival in november 2023.

Stonework had its premiere during the Gaudeamus festival on September 9 and was performed in the Netherlands and in Norway the past months. We are working to schedule new dates soon!
This brand new work is an exciting new direction for me and Mees Borgman. Together we are embarking on a journey into the unknown, creating works for and with non-humans, inspired by the urgency of the climate crisis. How can we as artists contribute to a more sustainable future on the planet Earth? Under the name Landmarks, we will investigate this in playful, experimental ways the coming years. Stonework is coproduced with Gaudeamus festival and is realised in collaboration with Casco Art Institute. It is made possible by the generous support of the Norwegian Arts Council, Fonds Podiumkunsten, the City of Utrecht, Stichting Melanie, Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds and Dioraphte fonds.
Welcome to the new LANDMARKS website! Here you will find more updates on Stonework.
