Babette is endlessly fascinated by art, but above all by the people who are brave and sensitive enough to create it. Driven by a deep passion and a strong sense of the necessity of art, she works as a dramaturg with various theatre makers who seek to question the conventions and boundaries of theatre, performance and music. As a programmer, she focuses primarily on talent development and artistic experimentation.
