Elliot Leusenkamp (1997)
Actor/Musician/All-round Maker
At least 14 years of all-round acting experience. I am self-taught, and have played with a wide range of companies. Teachers and directors describe me as a strong player in both verbal and physical play. Clear facial expressions and unmissable stage presence.
Self-taught musician for 14 years. Investigative, exploratory. Quick learner. Multi-instrumentalist. I write a lot of singer-songwriter folk with strong cabaret influences. I am also growing with TRUI: a four-piece queer punk band from Arnhem.
I studied film in Arnhem for two and a half years, and learned a lot about both the technical aspect and the creative process of storytelling in film. This is also where camera acting started for me. Since then I have acted several times in series such as Van Der Valk, RED LIGHT, the AYNIL film, GTST and SKAM.
I love dancing and writing and telling stories. Everything in the world has a story, and I like to unravel this together in my creative process.
Currently working at Theaterwerkplaats Kazou in Oosterbeek, and as a cast member at Boys Won't Be Boys.
