Biography

Biography

Natania Prezant (*1993) pursued her first interdisciplinary degree in International Relations, specializing in Economics, which has very much informed her artistic practice and methodologies. She obtained a Master degree in Theatre - Dramaturgy at ZHdK in 2021.

She likes to pick out methods from one discipline, and reinsert them into another, observing the resulting shifts in perspective and habit. These past few years she has been specializing as a dramaturg, remaining in the ambiguous zone between theory and practice, piece and audience, from whence she focuses on designing and accompanying group processes, mediation and accessibility, on attention and sensation. Much of her practice is influenced by a strong, early interest in bodies and dance.

 Many of her working and communication habits are informed by years of leading and teaching youth groups and theater workshops. Today she works primarily at the intersection of music and theater, as well as programming for a multidisciplinary festival, f.ex. with the ‘raucous babies’ (ZH, raucous-babies.ch), the ‘collectif barbare’ (AG, collectif-barbare.ch), or at ‘Le Castrum’ (VD, le-castrum.ch).
