The performances directed by Davy Pieters (1988) are explorations of the human of the future and the way it is influenced by technical innovation and visual culture. The performances are characterized by her dominantly visual, physical and cinematic style. Davy Pieters graduated in 2011 from the directors program of the Toneelacademie Maastricht. For her graduation project, she received the Henriette Hustinx-award. “She develops her projects on the intersection of theatre and performance with the courage to experiment”, the jury said about her work. For Theater Rottedam Davy produced the productions The Unplausant Surprise and How tot build a universe. Davy also produced several productions with Frascati between 2013 until 2016, among which are The Truth about Kate, How did I die and Made in Here. She is also the founder of performance collective KOBE, together with Nastaran Razawi Khorasani. The Truth about Kate was selected by the Dutch Theatre Festival and nominated for the BNG Nieuwe Theatermakersprijs. How did I die won the audience award at the Fast Forward Festival for Young Directors in Braunschweig (Germany) in 2016.
