Lola van Rumpt (NL) finished her Bachelor’s degree in Dance at Lucia Marthas Institute for Performing Arts in 2022. During her studies she specialized in contemporary dance and floorwork. In the past she has danced with Sally Dansgezelschap Maastricht under the direction of Stefan Ernst and with Xclusiv Company under the direction of Jason Jeandor. Currently Lola is working as a freelance artist with Zero Dance Theatre under the direction of Denden Karadeniz and with IID Company under the direction of Remy Tilburg and Robin Kroes. Lola is a remarkable performer and touches everyone she meets. She’s willing to go the extra mile and can effortlessly fill the room with her movements and her open personality.
"I love challenging myself conceptually as well as physically, I like to push boundaries and to leave the audience thinking about what they experienced in more than one way."
As a creator she enjoys working in tandem with other artists and disciplines. Her latest work Bursting Clouds premiered at the Delft Fringe Festival 2024. With this performance she challenges the audience to re-evaluate their relationship with nature by sharing the softer side of storm. As a maker she’s always pushing the limits and explores urgent social themes such as climate change and capitalism. In her work she paints a recognizable yet confronting picture in which the audience can lose and find themselves simultaneously. Lola van Rumpt was born in 2000 and grew up in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
