Stephanie Kayal
Stephanie Kayal is a Lebanese choreographer, dancer, and theatre maker based between Beirut and Brussels. Her work blurs reality and fiction, using low-tech aesthetics to craft absurd, darkly humorous performances. Through dance, music, and text, she explores themes of political despair, hope, and survival.
In addition to her collaborations as a performer, her works include Evidence of Things Not Seen (2021), Galactic Crush (2022), The Time It Took You to Realize It Was a Dream (2023), and Galactic Crush II: Into the Cold (2025). She has presented her work at venues such as Kunstencentrum Buda, Fabrik Potsdam, Frankfurt Lab, Zoukak Theatre, and Kaaistudios/workspacebrussels. In 2025, she joined Hiros, a Brussels-based organisation supporting artists’ development.
A Sundance Theatre Lab and Common Lab fellow, Kayal holds a Master's degree in Theatre and Choreography.
