Welcome to the Dutch Acrobats

We are a small group of experienced Dutch entertainers. Since 1999 our eye catching acrobats create moving performances in traditional Dutch costumes for both business-events and street theater. Our Amsterdam-based company is headed by Mr. Marco van Zanten.  

Worldwide, our physical humour and universal story line deliver easy and pleasant access and a spectacular approach to “the best” of Dutch folklore. Please read our recommendations.

We are specialized in playful interactivity that invites people to join in and participate.

New in 2024: Johannes Vermeer himself  joins our giant Grandmasters of Painting.  Together with the Milk Maid and / or the Girl with the pearl earring they model the crowds for flash portraits. The surpring result is gifted as a souvenir.

Paintings from Rembrandt van Rijn and Vincent Van Gogh are also represented by our Grand Masters.
