Karin Bloemen

Karin Bloemen is a Dutch actress and singer. She has appeared in several films and television shows in the Netherlands.

Since 1983 Bloemen is a singer and cabaret artist who is very extrovert and likes to draw attention to herself with her striking appearance, her beautiful songs and lively performances. In her theatre shows and concerts she makes use of her fabulous voice and expressive facial expressions and she plays the audience very well. She is exuberant and extroverted and can also be subdued and sensitive.

Before she had even finished her study at the Academy of Arts in Amsterdam in 1984, she won several prizes. She was awarded the Pisuisse Prize, which is an award for the student with the best theatre performance within the Academy. After graduation, the Pall Mall Export Prize quickly followed this prize. This is a prize for the promotion and development of young artists.

Bloemen soon became a well-known singer and actress in several Dutch musicals, films, television and radio programs. Her 1984 anti-apartheid song Zuid-Afrika was written by Jeroen van Merwijk. In 1994 she performed it in front of Nelson Mandela.Within six years of graduating, she made her debut in her first theatre show- Bosje Bloemen (Bunch of Flowers).
