YANI WANG

Director

I'm a theater director. worked with immersive theater, new writing and experimental theater.

At this moment, I am interested in exploring the inner experience of women and female's gender role within our society. I am interested in works that act as a mirror for its audience, making a time and space for self-refection, questioning the status quo of our society, also being accessible and engaging for its audience.
