Reactions from people I had the pleasure to work with.
"Erik has an infectious energy and knows exactly which buttons to push to get the best out of you as an actor. I learned so much from his characteristic, highly personal approach".

"An innovative, visionary director with an impeccable sense of atmosphere. Erik's shows will leave you with an unforgettable experience and a craving for more."
- Berend Boersma, Theatre Association NEST
"Erik fully brought my story to life with lighting, sound, powerful storytelling, and vibrant stage scenes. My production would not have been nearly as successful without him. To top it all off, he is an incredibly kind and enjoyable person to work with."
