Tim Hartog - FRICTION

Anyone who has ever visited the Rotterdam Comedy Club Haug knows that no comedian in the Netherlands has as much control over audience participation as Tim Hartog. He has managed to build a large audience through his social media channels in recent years. By organizing the very first Rijnmond New Year's Eve conference (2023) and his participation in 'De Slimste Mens' (from January 18, 2024), his audience is only growing further. High time to spread his wings, because Tim is ready!

At first glance, Tim is a likeable guy, with good standards and values. But this worrying ADHDer who grew up in South Rotterdam has more contradictions that have shaped him. And it is precisely these contradictions that make Tim an observational comedian who plays with assumptions and prejudices. Everyone wants to live the most fun and comfortable life possible. You can't achieve this just by following the beaten path. We must confront ourselves and the world around us, because without friction change is difficult to find. And that nice life especially.

Tim graduated from the Koningstheateracademie in 2010 and was in the final of the Leids Cabaret Festival. He is a popular guest on the Dutch comedy circuit and is also a much sought-after presenter. He appeared on television at 'The Comedy Factory' and 'De Grote Improvisatieshow'. He played at major festivals such as Paaspop and Lowlands. With his disarming charm and a high dose of jokes he knows how to captivate every audience.
