De Makers

De Makers goes international: Our first English interview! (Don’t worry-next week we’re back in Dutch!) Dide Vonk talks with 2 of the founders of the Boom Chicago Comedy Club: Andrew Moskos and Saskia Maas. Together with Pep Rosenfeld they started Comedyclub Boom Chicago 27 years ago. How did they continue to believe in their idea when other people did not at the start? How did they thrive into the comedy institute it is today? Why do amazing comedians from America come to the Netherlands to work here? The episode is about reinventing yourself and your business, about a ‘yes, and..’ mentality, the difference between the Dutch and Americans, how to direct and improv show and it contains a lot of great advice for creators, comedians and entrepreneurs! Sidenote: Did you know that great comedians/writers like Seth Meyers, Jordan Peele, Amber Ruffin, Ike Barinholtz, Jason Sudeikis and many more started their career right here at Boom Chicago in Amsterdam? Boom Chicago is a stepping stone for great talent and the good news is: You can take improv classes there yourself as well!
