Kameleon
Theater maker Sadettin explores what it means to constantly change color. Through the eyes of his daughter, he discovers that identity is not fixed, but constantly shifts.
In KAMELEON, theater maker Sadettin Kırmızıyüz explores what it means to constantly change color. He switches between roles: at home the obedient Turkish son, on stage the culturally responsible migrant, and in talk shows the nuanced Dutchman with a multicultural background. For years, he viewed this as a talent—the ability to adapt and move effortlessly between worlds. But now there is his daughter. Because of her white skin, the world suddenly seems to see him differently. Until he raises his hand when his daughter asks who is white—and she corrects him.
In KAMELEON, identity constantly shifts due to the gaze of others, the times in which you live, and sometimes your own child. With humor and sharpness, Sadettin shows how we all change color—often without realizing it.
