Yasmine Deroui is an Italian – Moroccan the­a­tre maker and dra­ma­turg based in Brussels. She obtai­ned a Master in Theatre at the Toneelacademie Maastricht. Her prac­ti­ce moves bet­ween the­a­tre, per­for­man­ce and video art, using auto­the­o­ry and jour­nal-sty­le writing.

Her recent work Medea(s) (2024) explo­red mother­hood and the rela­ti­ons­hip to the ute­rus through sen­so­ry sta­ge ima­gery. Across her pro­jects, the body func­ti­ons as a site of expe­ri­men­ta­ti­on, invi­ting audien­ces to feel what they obser­ve through lay­e­red mate­ri­als and cri­ti­cal dia­lo­gues bet­ween the per­so­nal and the political.

Yasmine Deroui has col­la­bo­ra­ted with artists such as Anne-Cécile Vandalem, Enkidu Khaled and Myra Schouten, and has wor­ked as a dan­ce dra­ma­turg with the Leipzig-based col­lec­ti­ve j.a.s., researching deco­lo­ni­zing prac­ti­ces and dias­po­ric rea­li­ties in dance.
