Educated first as an actor at The National Danish Acting School in 2013, I soon discovered that directing was my true calling. After completing my degree in directing at Stockholm University of the Arts in 2019, I've worked in many of Sweden's major institutional theaters.
The audience is always at the heart of my work, as I believe they are often the most overlooked aspect of theater. In a world that encourages disconnection, I value the tangible—like people sharing the same space.
My interest lies in the structures of society, politics turning into hypocrisy, and peeling back layers of self-deception and societal illusion. I’m drawn to color, speed, and movement, using spectacle as a language of expression. By reshaping the seductive aesthetics of commercialism, I critique the alienation brought on by late capitalism—our disconnection from ourselves, from others, and from the world around us.
As a director I work with a lot of different people, which is a privilege and a pleasure. But during the years I have gathered a few people that I often work with a little more than others. They are as big a part of my practice as myself and my best teachers and inspiration.
