Paulien Cornelisse

I have some news: the tour of my new show 'Komma' has been postponed until further notice. The reason for this is that I have been diagnosed with a form of cancer. I am now being treated by very good doctors and nurses. It is all hard, but my family and I are getting a lot of help from our dear friends and family.

Well. What else can I say about it? I hope that instead of my show, you will go to a show by a comedian you don't know yet. Because thanks to the people who came to see me when I first started, I was able to learn my craft. So let yourself be surprised by an unknown name! In the meantime, I am focusing on recovery and seeking peace with my family.

Suppose you didn't have to put a full stop at all, and didn't have to make a full stop? Suppose nothing was a full stop, and life consisted only of commas? In her new show, Paulien Cornelisse goes in search of the power of the comma. Come on, and see what happens when you leave out the full stop, just look at what's around the commas, and now that we're on the subject, perhaps there is a way to find out what the comma itself means, because a comma would only be a breathing space between two statements,

Paulien Cornelisse previously won the Dutch Hoop and was nominated for the Poelifinario. Paulien is also known for the books Language is say but really my thing, The confused Cavia, the documentary series Tokidoki, and she writes a column on the front page of De Volkskrant three times a week.
