Tijn Hoekzema

Dikke Nul has hit rock bottom. Despite a stellar academic career, they’ve somehow failed to land a job and ended up working in a lunchroom. Before they knew it, they got stuck in a glob of mayonnaise. As they plot their escape from the mayo - and try to figure out how they got there in the first place - they reflect on the oddities of lunchroom life and the downright bizarre ways the world is divided.

During come together Tijn will give a performative reading of their work in progress.

Tijn Hoekzema (they/them) graduated from the Maastricht Theatre Academy in 2022. With a passion for theater, film, contemporary art, music, underground, and pop culture, Tijn has developed a distinctive visual language and a unique frame of reference during their time in Maastricht. They stand firmly on the borderline between acting and performing, high and low art, reality and fiction, content and form.

Currently, due to a lack of opportunities in the field, Tijn has fully dedicated themselves to writing, producing works such as "Everybody is always six handshakes away from Paris Hilton’s coke dealer" and "They promised me a future but now i’m stuck in mayonaise."
