Roni Haver

Roni Haver danced with several companies through Europe, notably at Ultima Vez in Brussels (Wim Vandekeybus), Lanonima Imperial in Barcelona (Juan Carlos Garcia), and Galili Dance in Amsterdam and Groningen (Itzik Galili). Back in 2002, she and Guy Weizman started their own dance company in the city of Groningen, the Netherlands. In their work, they focus on contemporary subjects with the aim to inspire, confront and move audiences. A recurring theme in these performances is personal liberation and the freedom to make your own choices.

As choreographers, the two are often invited to cooperate with other groups. From 2010 to 2014, Haver and Weizman were artists in residence at the State Theatre in Oldenburg. In September 2014 they joined the Oldenburg artistic staff in taking up residency at the State Theatre in Mainz. Since 2011, they have been working together with the Tsekh Contemporary Dance Centre in Moscow.  Recently, they have worked on other co-productions in Tuscany and Belgrade, as well as with the Gothenburg Ballet (Sweden), Schauspiel Kölln (Germany) and Carte Blanche (Norway).

Back in Groningen, Club Guy & Roni has also enjoyed collaborating with a diverse set of partners, including NITE, the Noord Nederlands Orkest and Theater De Steeg, among others.

Throughout all this, Guy Weizman and Roni Haver have received several prestigious awards for best choreography that include the Swan for the performance ‘Midnight Rising’ in the Netherlands, as well as the Golden Mask for the performance ‘L’Histoire du Soldat’ in Russia. In 2013, Guy Weizman was awarded the Groninger Cultuurprijs, and more recently has choreographed and directed such productions as My Private Odyssey (with State Theatre Mainz), Mechanical Ecstasy (with Slagwerk Den Haag), Phobia, Happiness and Carrousel with AksolSchönbergs k[h]AOS.

In 2025, Haver and Weizman were awarded the Golden Swan during the Dutch Dance Days Festival in Maastricht for their interdisciplinary ‘XXL total theater’ style, which focuses on innovation, inclusivity, and talent development, as seen in The Human Odyssey series, among other works.

In 2026, they received the prestigious Jiří Kylián Ring in recognition of their exceptional and lasting contribution to dance.

The ring is awarded to artists whose work has had a lasting influence on the development and innovation of the dance world. Weizman and Haver received the award for their artistic vision, interdisciplinary innovation, and their many years of commitment to nurturing and supporting new generations of creators.
