Hi there! My name is meLê yamomo. I am a theatre director and composer, and resident artist at the Theater Ballhaus Naunynstraße.

When I’m not doing theatre and music (which is most of the time), I am most probably at work as an Assistant Professor of Theatre, and Performance Studies at the University of Amsterdam. I am also the Project Leader of »Sonic Entanglements: Listening to Modernities in Southeast Asian Sound Recordings« (a Veni Project by the Dutch Organization for Scientific Research (NWO), and the co-Project Leader and Principal Investigator offunded by the European Joint Project Initiatives for Cultural Heritage.

Besides these, I am
a rain or shine biker.a Lindyhop beginner.an adobo aficionado.am hoping to play the erhu someday.
