Godelieve Meijers is a theatre maker working at the intersection of theatre, rave culture and multidisciplinary performance. She studied at ArtEZ and has since developed a practice in which spatial dramaturgy, audience positioning and different disciplines come together.  

“I consciously choose places such as clubs, creative hubs, festivals and squats; places where the audience naturally becomes part of what is happening. Because it is written into the coding of the space. Your body already knows.”  

In her work, the audience does not stand opposite the performance, but right in the middle of it. Through the setting, rhythm and energy of the space, an experience emerges in which watching, listening and being present begin to merge.  

“For me, theatre is a sensory experience in which encounter and experiment are given space.”  

She is currently connected as a maker to BACKSTAGE Maaspoort and Nieuwe Helden Next Level.
