Jandino Jullian Asporaat (born 9 January 1981) is a Curaçaoan-Dutch stand-up comedian, actor, producer, writer, and voice actor.
Early life
[edit]Asporaat was born in Willemstad, Curaçao in the former Netherlands Antilles where he grew up in the Buena Vista neighborhood together with his mother, three brothers and sister. His father lived elsewhere on the island with a different woman and paid no alimony. In 1992 he relocated to the Netherlands with his family, moving to Rotterdam, South Holland at age 11, where they settled in the IJsselmonde neighborhood on the city's south side, while his oldest brother remained on Curaçao. After completing his studies, Asporaat plied his trade as a painter before focusing on a career in stand-up comedy.[1]
Career
[edit]Asporaat began his professional career in comedy in 2002 with the Rotterdam-based theater group 'Young Stage' where he worked for two seasons. He acted in a variety of Dutch theater groups, such as the Ro-theater, Waterhuis and Rotjong. He also made a few television appearances, such as The Comedy Factory in 2007, in films such as Deuce Bigalow and Staatsgevaarlijk and in television commercials.
Outside of his career as a stand-up comedian, Asporaat is also a songwriter and journalist. As a writer he has had his work published in de Volkskrant and the NTR program 'Raymann is Laat'. On 1 November 2014, Asporaat opened his own clothing store in downtown Delft, South Holland. On 10 December 2015 he released his first self-produced full-length film "Bon Bini Holland" for which he won the "Golden film" award at the Dutch Golden and Platin Film awards ceremony.[2] In July 2016, he played the voice of Snowball for the Dutch version of "The Secret Life of Pets".[3]
Television career
[edit]In May 2007, Asporaat made an appearance in the television show De Lama's on BNN. In 2009 he was made part of the TV Lab team of NPS to produce a television plot in conjunction with the production company Men at Work for the new television series "Comedy at Work". He was joined by the likes of Sergio IJssel (from Flikken Maastricht), Shula Felomina (theatercomedy) and Alpha Oumar Barry (from Kwasi & Kwame: De Zwarte met het Witte Hart) where they released revamped old Dutch television shows.
In July 2011 Comedy at Work returned to Dutch television, this time one on NTR / Nederland 3. The comedians behind "Hulp, mijn man is John Williams", "Meisje, ik ben boos" and "De Nanny" returned once more with comedy, sketches and a new name "De Dino Show". The show was nominated for a Golden Rose (Rose d'Or) award in 2013 at the annual European festival for amusement television.
In 2013 and 2014, Asporaat was made a permanent panel member on RTL 4's "Wie ben ik?". Since 2014 he also hosts the weekly show "Alles mag op zaterdag". He has also hosted the Dutch version of the U.K. TV show "Dance, dance, dance" together with Chantal Janzen, and "Playback, je gek!" on RTL 4, both since 2015. He has also hosted his own talk show on RTL 5 since November 2015 titled "DINO", which is a spin-off of his successful "The Dino show" from NTR. Since 12 March 2016 he has co-hosted the show "Alles mag op zaterdag" together with Gordon and Gerard Joling.[4]
Stand-up career
[edit]In 2005 he was in the final of the cabaret festival Cameretten. He was awarded the personality prize despite finishing in second place. His first full length theater presentation in which he head lined was "Antilliaanse Pot" which premiered in 2006 and was later released on DVD. His successful follow up "Buena Vista" followed two years later, where Asporaat reflects on his youth years and growing up on the island of Curaçao. His second feature was featured on Dutch television on channel Nederland 3 and was also later released on DVD. His third full feature "Laat ze maar komen" was released in 2011.[5]
Around the same time of his National theater presentations, his collaborative tour with Roué Verveer, Murth Mossel and Howard Komproe began. The comedy group was known as the Caribbean Combo and toured the Netherlands, Suriname and the Dutch Caribbean islands during the Winter months of 2010 and 2011. On 7 June 2014 he became the first cabaret artist to perform at the newly opened Rotterdam Ahoy.
