Lucius Romeo-Fromm

Lucius Romeo-Fromm is a performer, choreographer, and assistant director. He currently collaborates with director Luanda Casella and NTGent, where he works across performance, choreography, and artistic development.

Originally trained in classical ballet, Romeo-Fromm expanded his dance practice in late-1980s New York to experimental and contemporary dance forms. During this period, he became involved with the European cultural scene through improvisation projects at The Kitchen and through Patrick De Geetere’s Les Contaminations, a documentary tribute to Andy Warhol presented at Centre Pompidou. After settling in Belgium in the early 1990s, he developed a wide-ranging career that spans theatre, dance, opera, cabaret, television, and nightlife culture.

In recent years, he has worked extensively with Lisbeth Gruwez and Voetvolk, as well as with Luanda Casella. In 2024, he appeared in Elektra Unbound by Luanda Casella and NTGent, a production presented at the Venice Biennale. For this role, he was nominated by the TheatreFestival in the category Most Valued Acting Performance 35+.

Wavelength – 2026

Haider Al Timimi Lucius Romeo-Fromm
Wavelength

Lucius and Haider dance a conversation — uncertain whether it will end as a duet or a duel. Beneath the surface, tensions simmer: clashing opinions, misunderstandings, sensitivities, and frustrations. They face each other with the only weapons they know —their words, and the language of dance. They listen, shout, and whisper through a charged pas-de-deux.
Wavelength is the theatrical embodiment of a real conversation between Haider Al Timimi and Lucius Romeo-Fromm about our polarized world. One arrived in Belgium from Iraq; the other from the United States. Together, they share their concerns about the state of things — echo chambers, cancel culture, our cosmic insignificance, and the growing rift between worldviews that makes coexistence seem impossible.
From there, they dance in search for a possible answer.
