Biografie
Cam (2003, Odesa, Ukraine) is a professional Zurich-based theatre maker and drag performer (under the stage name Eternal Damnation). Her work in both theatre and drag is all about telling complex stories on stage in a way that is engaging, provocative, and aesthetically challenging.
After graduating high school, as well as the State Musical Theatre school (2013-2019), she was enrolled in Kyiv Municipal Academy of Performing Arts to study Theatre Directing in the class of Vlada Belozorenko, a contemporary Ukrainian theatre director. With the start of the full-scale Russian-Ukrainian war in 2022, she came to Switzerland and enrolled at Zurich University of the Arts to continue her Theatre Directing studies there.
Since then, she has been able to direct a few full-length productions, incl. “Der Gott des Gemetzels” (based on the eponymous play by Yasmina Reza) and “Sie sehen hier ein Haus” (based on “Die Zukünftige” by Svenja Viola Bungarten) in Theater der Künste, Zürich. Besides that, she has been hosting and producing her own queer variety show “Eternal Queeriety” since March of 2024.
In addition to working on the texts of the established playwrights, Cam enjoys developing her own texts. She is currently writing a Black-Mirror-style space opera called “Elara”. Besides that, in 2026, she's presenting her original musical “I Guess We're Going To Hell” in Millers Studio, Zurich.
