About us

We are Tanine and Roemer, two improvisers both living in Amsterdam. When we discovered we both love well acted improv with a heart, that shows our intrinsic human kindness as well as our meanness and our weaknesses, we decided to create a fun and endeering improv show to demonstrate that our weaknesses are just the flip sides of our love and best intentions. We love to play with our different cultural backgrounds, the misunderstandings and prejudices that they yield but also the discoveries and new ideas that they provide us with.
