©Booi Kluiving - 

Booi Kluiving is a theatre maker and digital artist. He creates performances and online work about digital culture and technology. After graduating from the ArtEZ School of Acting, he developed his artistic voice at Theater a/d Rijn and later at Feikes Huis, where he is a resident artist. His research begins with personal fascinations within digital subcultures. Through his work, he aims to introduce traditional theatre audiences to internet culture while giving the internet generation a voice on stage.

Kluiving made his debut in 2018 with Kek, about an incel who becomes radicalised online. He subsequently created Let’s Play (2020), in which a YouTuber is confronted with his traumatic past while gaming. This was followed by De Memers(2022) and the Analoge Meme Maker© (2022), a performance and installation about internet memes. In 2023, SatisFactory—about three ASMR artists who are forced to go increasingly far for their content—and I AM, I AM NOT, developed for Cross-TIC, premiered. In 2024, he developed the interactive storytelling performance Morf together with Theater Utrecht / Innovation:Lab, DOX and Feikes Huis.

Kluiving is currently developing For_You, a hybrid theatrical installation that brings together live performance, short-form video, AI and audience interaction. The project explores how a shared algorithm can shape a live performance for both an in-person and online audience.

From 2021 to 2024, Kluiving worked as a performer with Brussels-based company CREW on Hands-On Hamlet, Delirious Departures and Anxious Arrivals. He collaborated with De Toneelmakerij on Rabbit Hole (2023) and In Real Life (2026), for which he directed the digital world.

Alongside his theatre practice, Kluiving creates online sketches. He also performed alongside Davine Perik in the HUMAN web series Solo Sapiens. His first book, Cringe Mountain, will be published in autumn 2026 by Spring, an imprint of Atlas Contact.
