This performance unfolds as an ode to stumbling, losing, getting stuck and finding our way again. It offers a glimpse of who we might have been, a longing for what has slipped away, and a compelling attempt to piece ourselves back together.
I’m so grateful that I got to make this work together with the dancers of @nationaleoperaballet
They have challenged me and inspired me in so many ways. Thank you @ernstmeisner for inviting me and giving me the space to develop and grow.

Bursting Clouds is an invitation to look further than the outside layer of storm to embrace all the chaos, vulnerability and playfulness. An interdisciplinary performance in which I hope to bring the audience closer to nature and let them reflect on their own perspective of humanity and storm.

What a special place, it was amazing to explore nature and learn more about the culture. So many memories and so grateful to share this journey with @daviestheartist 🫂
Fresh, energetic and unapologetically bold. Discover the future of dance in the Studio Boekman programme Zoë & Lola. 🌟 Zoë Greten’s Glitch in the matrix explores the tension between comfort and control, while Lola van Rumpt’s The Weight of Becoming reflects on the loss that is inextricably linked to growth.
Together with dancers from Dutch National Ballet, the two young choreographers push their boundaries, and find their own movement language. 💫🩰
🗓️ 22-23 November
So excited to share my new work The Weight of Becoming on the 22nd and 23th of November at Studio Boekman @nationaleoperaballet
