Kijken naar Sacha (Watching Sacha)


I got the part of Britt in the short movie 'Kijken naar Sacha' (Watching Sacha). Director: Lotje Kerckhaert. My co-star is Ilse van Kollenburg.

I'm looking forward to the shoot!

It's going to be shown during the Kunst en Cultuurfestival in Nijmegen at 18th and 19th of September.

XMIX



I'm cast as the villain in the kids tv series Xmix. I play a hairdresser who steals juwels from her customers. The series is a cross between the powerrangers and scoobydoo. Tight latex outfits and flashy helmets, invisibility and other powers combined with a song and a villain. It's always fantastic to play a villain so this was a lot of fun. The shoot was today! I did a lot of running and end up, like a villain is used to: sulking and tied up. Yay! Setdays are happy days!

Due to unforseen circumstances, Wordplay at the ABC Treehouse got cancelled for tonight. This means we won't be performing our scene there tonight but we will perform at Wordplay next month. Stay tuned!

Acting in front of the Camera


The course is fun and a learning experience so far! Marina is very nice, as well as the other participants.
We did scenes from Bride Flight, Floor Faber and Flikken Maastricht.
I am looking forward to Monday, when Michiel Ten Horn will come by to direct us.
I have seen his short film "Arie" at the Dutch Film Festival last year and that was a truly enjoyable experience. I'm a huge fan of short films and this was a fun one.
Aart Staartjes and Eric van Der Donk are in it. I think that anyone who's watched Klokhuis and the Dutch Sesame Street (every Dutch person out there, I think) will grin enthusiastically at the thought alone.

The website: Arie.

The Making Of:




I'm curious for Monday!

Open mike, Echt Gebeurd, and more!

The new year has strated again! Time to announce what has happened the past month. Here we go:

Standup Comedy:

Roamed a couple of open mikes, the Comedy Cafe (twice) and the Comedy Theater aan de Nes (1x).

In Other events:

I joined the December Edition of Echt Gebeurd in Toomler. It was a ton of fun. Real Christmas stories that actually happened, told in an intimite admosphere. You can find more information (in Dutch) about Gebeurd here. The concept is based on The Moth (Very recommended, in English).

I start this new year right away with a workshop at Kemna Casting, tomorrow already! en Acteren in front of the camera. Marina Wijn is teaching it. I am looking forward!

More stand-up Comedy:

Lach Us Comedyclub New Years Edition

* Maarten Ebbers: Jury- and audience winner of the Leids Cabaret Festival 2009.
The jury called Ebbers ”a good energetic performer, who is very musical to boot. He switches effordless from Blues singer to hardrocker and takes the audience with him to his absurd family world just as easily.

* Lambros Fisfis: Winner of the Sonnema Talent Tour 2009. (in ENglish)
The jury: "Lambros had a spectacular opening. And a tight act with perfect timing and good jokes. He was the only finalist who had the attention of the audience for the full 100 percent. His performance was balanced!"

* Claartje van Swaaij: That's me!

* Joke Sitsen: Finalist Sonnema Talent Tour 2009.

* Frank Deuring: Young comedian who performs throughout the country.

MC: Soula Notos. (VERY funny lady).
