Wieteke van Dort

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Louisa Johanna Theodora (Wieteke) van Dort (Surabaya, Dutch East Indies, May 16, 1943) is a Dutch actress, comedienne, singer, writer and artist. She has appeared on many children’s television programs and is best known for her Dutch-Indonesian (“Indo”) character as Tante Lien in The Late Late Lien Show on Dutch television.

Wieteke Van Dort was born in Surabaya in what was then the Dutch East Indies under the Japanese occupation of Indonesia. While there, she attended two primary schools, and began attending the HBS. When she was thirteen years old, the Van Dort family went on vacation to The Netherlands. While they were abroad, Sukarno nationalized Indonesia and the Van Dort family lost everything. Her family settled in The Hague.

In The Hague, she left middle school without a diploma. Because she was too young for the academy of dramatic arts, she first underwent training to become a nursery school teacher. Although she did not receive a diploma, she did complete three years of HBS (roughly equivalent to a diploma in MAVO – regular high school - in The Netherlands). In 1962 and 1963, she attended Toneelgroep Rederijkers (the academy of dramatic arts). While at the academy, she played Laura Wingfield in a performance of The Glass Menagerie. In 1964, she dropped out of the academy and signed a contract with the Nieuwe Komedie. In 1968, she began working with Wim Kan and Corry Vonk as a comedienne.

After her marriage to Theo Moody, she concentrated with much success on radio and television. In De Stratemakeropzeeshow with Aart Staartjes and Joost Prinsen, she played the 'distinguished lady'. In the 1970s, she appeared on the children’s program Lawaaipapegaai. The writer’s collective consisted of Hans Dorrestijn, Karel Eykman, Ries Moonen, Fetze Pijlman, Jan Riem, during which time Willem Wilmink (a scriptwriter) passed away. Wieteke van Dort also participated in the television program Het Klokhuis by overseeing the text in the scriptwriting collective.

Today, Wieteke van Dort is active in the fine arts.

Van Dort is a supporter of Jomanda.[1]
