How did it all start ?
1977
- 1982
Dirk
has always been experimenting with all kinds of performances.
Young Dirk was extremely charmed by the Muppet Show. He forced
all his friends to join his own Muppet Theatre. Puppets, scenery,
texts: he made it all. And of course it was clear Miss Piggy should
have the real Miss Piggy's voice: a voice imitator was born !

1983-1987
As
a student in engineering, Dirk joined the "revue": an
annual show in the Leuven main theatre, in which students made
fun of their professors. The actors imitated their professors,
and Dirk played another part every year. These shows made Dirk
decide to start a career in show business, rather than remaining
an engineer.

1988-1990
After
graduating, duty called. Dirk joined IMEC, the world famous electronics
research centre in Leuven. But after two years he went into military
service. In those days he started "Cabaretteketet": a
group of colleagues and friends, mostly former revue-actors, who
liked to perform as comedians after working hours. Some of Dirks
most famous (Belgian) voice imitations were created in those days.
