Be Flat is a circus company that creates location specific performances. All the members of Be Flat are acrobats who play music as well.
The explosive combination of live music and movement is more than the sum of the parts! For big performances Be Flat extends their team with musicians and more acrobats. I play and sometimes compose for Be Flat.
LIVING
Since 2022 I am taking part in Be Flat’s newest project “LIVING“. LIVING is a multidisciplinary collective that creates site specific circus shows in spaces that are not made for performances. Spaces like nursing homes, libraries, prisons, second hand markets, bars, etcera. One of the important goals of Be Flat is to bring circus to people who usually don’t go to theaters and to connect people from different layers of society.
See shows for upcoming shows.

Backdrop
In September 2021 we played the show “Backdrop” on the Plein de Cirque festival in Turnhout. I was band leader and invited 3 other musicians. We had one day to create the music for this 45 minute show.

"Follow Us" at CirkL festival 2019 in Leuven
Aftermovie of the performance “Follow Us,” which was created for the circusfestival CirkL 2019. A social-artistic performance that scans through a former industrial neighbourhood of Leuven, Belgium. “Follow Us” was created by circus company Be Flat in collaboration with SPRINGSTOF Parcour. It was great to be part of this performance and my composition “Kindred Souls“ is also featured in this video.
