Poetry on Sunday by Sarah Ringoet

Sarah Ringoet will read from her poetry collections NOT | STILL and .in which dimension are we dancing.

In 2021 NOT | STILL was published, Ringoet’s first work in English: a trilogy of raw, intimate and poetical monologues about desire and loss.

 .in which dimension are we dancing is Ringoet’s second work in English, a collection of poems and theatre texts; darkness, solitude and the search for genuine connection. The verse has urgency and narrative momentum, is heartfelt and is at times  devastating, at times witty.

She teaches physical theatre and text at the Amsterdam University of the Arts where she also is a mentor and advisor.
