I
am also a professional Theatre Director which makes it natural for me
to co-operate with dancers, actors, performance artists and musicians.
I find it extremely rewarding to share ideas and working methods with
other artists equipped with different means and ways of expression. Making
a new performance is always a new journey, like finding a new continent.

relationship between a freedom and equality-loving woman and a fierce, demanding
