She is half-American (sorry!) and half-Dutch (ook sorry!) and always in an existential crisis. Her deepest wish is to one day perform a perfect two-person La Ronde. Ask her about women’s football at your own risk.

Scott Trout

Scott Trout

Scott Trout was born in the mountains of Colorado, USA. He is the middle child of five boys, each gifted in something different. So at a young age, Scott started being dramatic in order to stand out. He found improvisation while playing the Genie in Aladdin. He thought there wasn't enough of Robin William's lines in the play, so he decided to add some. Now Scott's whole life is basically improv, from studying acting in the middle of Wyoming, to moving to Oregon to work in a full time Christian ministry, to getting married, and finally to moving to Amsterdam to mentor international students. During the pandemic, he started a podcast called Between Two Worlds, where he and his improv buddy Joey interview people's stories of spirituality ranging belief, unbelief, and everything in between.
