Director, countertenor, performer and self-proclaimed court jester, Benjamin Abel Meirhaeghe examines how he can interpret opera and ballet repertoire in a new way. He plays with the great emotions and gestures of these art forms and holds them up to the light of today. For example, in his graduation performance The Ballet (2018), Meirhaeghe compared contemporary suffering with suffering in the romantic period. At the same time, the show explored how young makers can work in the larger theatres.
