👄Meet the guests for: 𝗡𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸𝘀: 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗱𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝗺 
 Introducing: LONNE GOSLING Lonne Gosling is an actor, presenter and theatre maker.
Since graduating from the Academy of Theatre, she has performed for companies including Theater Oortwolk, Cie Perelman, Afslag Eindhoven and De Kwekerij. @lonnegosling 
Lonne also makes films and productions with Twan van Bragt:
Drawing on their shared fascination with the anti-hero and human inadequacy, they create work that is uncomfortable, dry and comforting. They operate at the intersection of theatre and film. They previously created the one-woman show ‘Misschien moet ik zelf huilen’, the web series Life of Gemma, a tragicomic series about a socially awkward vocational MBO teacher. They are currently working on ‘Morgen Weer Een Dag’ 💡 Curious? Let’s explore the power of comedy in film, shining a light on a genre that continues to evolve across both mainstream and independent cinema. This session examines what it takes to work within the genre, the challenges of making people laugh, and why comedy remains such a vital reflection of contemporary culture. As this talk focusses on comedy, in which language, nuance and timing play a crucial role, this talk will be in Dutch. 𝗡𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸𝘀: 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗱𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝗺 📆 26 May, 20:00-22:00 📍 Natlab, Eindhoven @natlab.eindhoven 🎟️ via link in @next.playgrounds  bio The Next Real Talks bring creatives together for open conversations about the realities of creative life — from vulnerability and doubt to growth and success. In an intimate and interactive setting, we create space for honest dialogue, listening, and care.

Are you a creator who wants to bounce their idea to the group & get some help to further develop your idea? There are still some spots open!

It was amazing again! @tad.playgrounds felt just like it used to, with so many familiar faces and also tons of awesome new people. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and wanted to take a tattoo home with them. After two fully booked days of tattooing and an incredible festival, I’ll start mentally preparing for the next one already. Special thanks to: @toscanabanana @mauritzseerden @thomasweijmer @psychara_art @dandyandylion @dymphieselisa @weareplaygrounds @next.playgrounds

De snelst groeiende creatieve sector van Zuid-Nederland. Gisteren presenteerden we tijdens het sectoroverleg van Playgrounds Next het onderzoeksrapport ‘Hollywood onder de Rivieren’. Een onderzoek naar de economische kracht van de AV-sector in Zuid-Nederland door Paul Rutten en Walter Manshanden. Het rapport werd na de presentatie overhandigd aan beleidsmakers Merel Theloesen (Provincie Limburg), Joyce Dagevos-Poot (Provincie Zeeland) en Inge Verdonschot (Provincie Noord-Brabant), en senior beleidsadviseur Jeroen van der Zalm (Nederlands Filmfonds). De AV-sector in Zuid-Nederland groeit sneller dan de economie. En vaak zelfs sneller dan de gehele creatieve industrie. De basis ligt er: regionaal talent & succesvolle mediabedrijven die laten zien dat het kan! De volgende stap is inzetten op verbinding tussen wat er al is, meer zichtbaarheid creëren en samen verder bouwen aan een sterkere sector.
