I have been working with theatre for several years, as an actress, a teacher, a director, and a project manager etc. In 2004 I started as cultural entrepreneur producing science theatre. Science theatre is a fusion of the lecture and the theatre performance. A science-theatre performance is arranged and created in close collaboration between the artist and the scientist. This means that the scientific professional who participates in the performance is present at stage alongside with the actors.

My performances are based on a visual, a musical and a sensuous expression, where the scientist's words, the performer's action and the music in a reciprocal action create a dynamic and a whole. Science-theatre is a way in which you may communicate scientific results and knowledge to a broader audience. The layman is thereby given a change for insight in important knowledge and the performance will create a space for critical dialog and debate.
