The Reunion” is a participatory performance that explores the relationship between identity, memory, and belonging. Inspired by the Ubuntu philosophy — I am because we are — the piece invites both performer and audience into a shared moment of reflection: a reunion with younger versions of ourselves.This work emerges from my personal journey of returning to the environment where I first felt out of place, my high school, and confronting the formative experiences that shaped who I am today. Through interviews, writing workshops, and creative dialogue, I’ve explored how identity is formed in the spaces we inhabit, and how leaving or resisting those spaces can be both painful and necessary acts of self-definition.“The Reunion” is about healing and giving space to the voices we once silenced and recognizing that our current selves are a collective, shaped by past selves, the people we’ve met, and the communities we’ve chosen or left behind.This performance creates a temporary space where vulnerability is met with care, and reflection becomes an act of connection with oneself, with others, and with the stories we carry within us. Through guided prompts and spoken word, I invite the audience to engage in their own reunion, a shared ritual to ask: Who was I then? Who am I now? And who are we, together?_________

“The Reunion” is een participatieve voorstelling die de relatie tussen identiteit, herinnering en verbondenheid onderzoekt. Geïnspireerd door de Ubuntu-filosofie – ik ben omdat wij zijn – nodigt het stuk zowel de artiesten als het publiek uit tot een gezamenlijk moment van reflectie: een weerzien met jongere versies van onszelf. Door middel van begeleide vragen en gesproken woord nodig ik het publiek uit om deel te nemen aan hun eigen reünie, een gedeeld ritueel om te vragen: Wie was ik toen? Wie ben ik nu? En wie zijn wij, samen?
