Performing Arts Training De Kip
De Kip is a part-time practical training program running from October 2011 through March 2012. Under the intensive guidance of a director and pianist, a full-length performance is created. A performance consists of 20 separate acts or songs and is performed in 8 theaters in the Netherlands. There are 13 rehearsals. The total guidance per person is 18 days. You learn a lot from each other and the audience, while keeping each other motivated. You can grow in the direction that suits you, feels right, and brings out the best in you. During rehearsals, the group is your support system, but also your audience.

What do you learn at De Kip
- Writing your own material
- You discover your own strength and specific talent year after year
- You develop a theatrical personality
- You learn that humor and substance go hand in hand
- You learn to make something out of 'nothing'
- You learn how to interact with an audience
- Improvisational singing
- You learn to play to a full house
- You gain experience, also outside the theater walls in the business world.

De Kippen will also have the opportunity to perform outside of theaters, in the corporate sector. A special program is being created for this purpose. More information about this can be found on the website.

For whom
- Theater makers with a sense of humor who are still searching for their form
