Ruud Coumans

Ruud (any/all) discovered the Radical Faeries in 2018 and immediately became enchanted. A year later, at Follettere, together with Lau they hosted their very first No-Talent Show, called "Twinkerella". And while Lau kept on spewing scenes and characters, Ruud discovered a special gift of turning creative chaos into reality.

That night sparked a dream: to share the liberating magic of the No-Talent Show with the outside world. A dream that eventually grew into KALEIDO. 

At KALEIDO, Ruud co-creates our stories and scenes and translates them into our show flows and instructions for our ever-expanding team. At Landjuweel, they found their calling in programming the Queer Space. 

Ruuds dreams for KALEIDO are big: from setting up a foundation to bringing No-Talent magic to creative festivals, special venues and theaters. The creative chaos has only just begun.
