Talking about awesome! Yes, that was my 2023. I made a movie with most of my highlights. Probably forgot a few, as you can’t remember (or even capture) everything. Nonetheless am I very pleased with the movie showing my year. I wish you all the best for 2024!
2024 will open with the South-American Unicycle Championships in Januari. I will be participating in LAUCC 2024, the Latin American competition. It will be fun and very educational. Played my theatershow “Eaters” a number of times and acted as Theater-technician during a lot of other shows.
This December I will be performing in Groot Kerst Circus (Big Christmas Circus) in Leiden on the 30th, in the show starting at 16:00H. My act “Eaters” will be part of the Christmas-show of the Miloco Youth-circus from the city of Leiden. How cool is that?
One year ago I designed my theateract ‘Eaters’. Then I decided to participate in ‘Circus got Talent’. It was a great experience. But I never expected this act to blossom like it does. What started as a 6 minute act became a standalone show of 15 minutes.
Today I went to the beautiful city of Leiden for a unicycle-training at Circus Miloco. This weekly training starts at 18.00h, but I have to travel 90 minutes to get there. To make the best of the visit we combine the unicycle-training with an educational project in the city.
Dutch TV Show ZappSport Kantine was interested in Unicycling and the upcoming Unicycling World Convention and Championships in the USA.
One of my favourite unicycle-events is the annual ROC Convention organised by Ride One Unicycling from Solingen. It’s two days full with workshops and a lot of fun. In 2022 I landend my 180 unispin here for the first time. It was also the event I did my first drop in (thanks Ian, Jan!).
My show ‘Eaters’ was part of Festival ‘Verborgen Theater’ (hidden theater) in the City of Rotterdam. I played my act 5 times and had great fun.
Every year in September in The Netherlands we commemorate our monuments, like special building, castles, churches, bridges, etc. In 2023 this also included non-material monuments like circus and theater. The big kickoff-event was a star-packed show in downtown Zwolle.
Well that was an amazing experience. I opened the big Storytelling Festival ‘Tussenland’ with my act Eaters. Tussenland features 3 days of storytellers and performance: acrobats, spoken word artists, theater-performers, etc. Some of the best acts in the world could be found at Tussenland.
