Choreographers Guy Weizman and Roni Haver, both Israeli with an Arab background, focus their work on current subjects with the aim of inspiring, confronting and touching the audience. The duality in their background is reflected in their work. The recurring theme in their work is personal liberation and their dance vocabulary is innovative, raw and exciting.
After starting in the Bat Sheva Ensemble in Tel Aviv, they worked with various dance companies in Berlin, Barcelona and Brussels, inspiring themselves along the way. Club Guy & Roni was founded in 2001 and is a collaborating force with permanent members such as Dunja Jocic, Yvonne Weschke, Igor Podsiadly and Jorge Morro (dancers), Ascon de Nijs (scenery designer), Veerle van Overloop (dramaturgist) and Wil Frikken (light-design).
The group commissioned several works from well-known composers of new music such as, amongst others, Heiner Goebbels (DE) and Michael Gordon (USA).
Roni Haver has twice been nominated for the Zwaan (Swan) for the best dancing achievement.
Their mysterious, seductive and dynamic dance performances have made them a popular guest at international venues in Rome, Tallin, Marseille, Berlin, Prague and Lausanne, Barcelona, Madrid, and many more. In the summer of 2007 the company made the intercontinental step performing at the prestigious American Jacob’s pillow festival.
Next to the new production Pinball and Grace which will be premiered and toured from October 2009 on, the company continues to perform Poetic Disasters nationally as well as internationally.
