My name is Stuart Meyers and I’m a multidisciplinary artist primarily working in performance. I make dance theatre, events, videos and installations. I’m also an actor, dancer and I sometimes draw. So far, I’ve lived and created work in Philadelphia, Berlin and now New York.

As a performer, I’ve worked alongside the artists Robert Wilson, Christopher Williams, Thomas Bo Nilsson, Colette Sadler, Julian Webber, Nick Cave and Tino Sehgal. I’ve performed in many international festivals, museums and theatres including Martin Gropius Bau (Berlin), The Stedelijk (Amsterdam), Schaubuhne (Berlin), The Armory (NYC), The Shed (NYC) and The Southbank Centre (London). I’ve shown my own work in Movement Research @ The Judson Church (NYC), ada Studio’s series (Berlin), the STRETCH Festival (Berlin), the SUBMERGE Festival (Berlin), and at CPR (NYC). I also curated and presented work in Berlin’s nGbK and Bethanien galleries.

With funding from the Berlin Senat, I created my Queer, Jew-ish, Dreamy & DIY Shabbat Dinner Delight & Extravaganza *The Shabbos Queen*, which combines ritual, performance and a five-course homemade dining experience to celebrate rest and togetherness. The evening has been presented in Berlin, Philadelphia, NYC and Tel Aviv. This Spring, I’ll be presenting a new work called BE YOUR OWN YENTA!: a guide to becoming your own matchmaker.

Parallel to my artistic work, I’m a certified hypnotist (IHF), study dreams and imagery through a Kabbalistc perspective (Bonnie Buckner), have reiki certifications and studied Talmud and Torah as a Drisha Kollel Fellow. I’m also a 2018 danceWEB scholar and a Boston University Graduate (BFA Theatre Arts, Minor Dance).
