After completing my Master's in Film Studies, I followed my heart towards the performing arts and ended up at ZID. I am interested in everything that changes and moves, in visuality and connection. In addition to production, I like to think along on a creative level and contribute from a cinematic perspective.

During my masters program a teacher recommended ZID to me, while I was talking to her about my ideal organization to work at.I decided to visit and see their work; I was fascinated by the diversity and the aesthetics of the performance. Later on, I joined ZID and ever since I experience the joy of people making art in an inclusive, welcome and creative environment.

Webmaster Tone and Fate

As an intern I ended up at ZID Theater in the third year of my Social Work studies. At ZID, I met amazing people, been given the space to explore and push my boundaries and learn skills that I thought would not be covered during the internship. For example, creating websites in Wordpress. I am now working as a webmaster for ZID and I manage the FATE and TONE websites. Who would have thought that!
 

Artistic Team

Daan Bosch

Theatre maker and teacher

I guide the players, together with the other members of the team. As often as I can I assist Karolina with music, text and play.

Claribel Rodriquez Castillo

Actor, dancer and teacher

I am a theatre maker in heart and soul, all my life. As a small child on the 'stage in the garden', now I am here in the Netherlands as a theatre maker, employed by ZID Theater with my own, independent productions. For me, theatre is a means to help people communicate and to get into their own power. Theatre challenges me to show the best of me.

 

Joske Daamen

Actor, dancer and teacher

From my discipline of dance I work at ZID theater on movement, a universal language. It ensures a special exchange and meeting of the group and adds an extra dimension to the performances.

 

Ista Bagus Putranto

Actor and puppeteer

In Indonesia I have done many neighborhood theater and community theater projects. The nice thing about ZID is the composition of the group, with so many nationalities. You don't have that in Indonesia.

Lara Bakker

Singer/songwriter, actress

I enjoy performing, singing and dancing.

Naima Baraca

Actor and teacher

ZID Theater is a creative addition for me as a performer/actor. Inspired and nice to be part of a group of people who always look for wonder and connect through theatre.

Issam Zemmouri

Dancer, performer

I am a contemporary dancer and work with physical theatre. I participate with ZID Theater because I am interested in experiencing new physical theatrical encounters and I love everything new in movement and physical poetry. ZID stimulates my artistic dreams, which gives me a lot of creativity and inspiration in my work as a dancer.
 

Osni Seye

Dancer, performer

ZID Theater is a very hospitable organization. In her events there is always diversity of age and culture. I feel involved and respected and I can develop my artistic skills at ZID. That's why I like working at ZID.
