Double Dutch

2025 is going to be (dutch accent) crazy in a good way! I’m working on some big stuff I can’t wait to share with all of you and am so grateful for your love and laughs (and lives too). In 2024 I started doing shows and making videos fulltime non-stop which is my dream in life. It’s all I want to do and I will keep doing it for you for as long as I possibly can. I have even been nominated for best instagrammer in the netherlands which is (dutch accent) over de top! If you agree with this nomination please vote for me? If you don’t I respect your opinion (ik ben ingeburgerd). Link is in my bio which in 2025 is increasingly (american accent with vocal fry) literally so cringe to say. I hope you have a beautiful and also gentle start to your 2025. Chill out and have an oliebol for example. Lots of love, Derek x

Niet in mijn naam = not in my name Many of us have found one another through this account because we are part of a global community of migrants. Many of you are the Dutch people who know us and love us. And many are Dutch people who are migrants themselves around the world. We share an understanding of the complexity of borders, nationality, immigration and how governments determine the way these things work and affect our lives. Our government in The Netherlands, led by @minpres Dick Schoof, continues to support war crimes and acts of g3n0cid3 carried out by the Israeli government in Gaza and surrounding countries. Over 150,000 people - including so many children - have been injured and murd3r3d. It is impossible for most of us to comprehend the life-destroying, history-altering horror of what is still happening. And I know most of you probably feel deeply hopeless. But! What we can do right now in the Netherlands is sign the letter linked in my bio, prepared by @oxfamnovib , telling @minpres Dick Schoof that we will NOT stand for these crimes to be committed IN OUR NAMES. We need as many signatures as possible by the end of this week - and it only takes a couple seconds to sign today. #nietinmijnnaam

🇬🇧 UK TOUR 🇬🇧 Fresh off a sold-out, five-star Edinburgh run and over 120 international performances, this debut hour of stand-up and characters from the ‘out-and-out hilarious’ (The Stage) Derek Mitchell is a high-octane exploration of cultural clashes between Dutchness, Englishness and Americanness.  Mitchell’s online sketches have generated over half a billion views worldwide. But with his trademark physicality and vivid characterisations he brings cultural quirks to life live onstage in this laugh-out-loud celebration of what it means to belong – or not. ★★★★★ A YoungISH Perspective ★★★★★ Shadows on the Wall ★★★★★ Broadway Baby ★★★★ The Comic’s Comic ★★★★ The Wee Review ★★★★ Mervyn Stutter’s Pick of the Fringe 28th February - @alphabetti_theatre 1st March - @thestandglasgow 2nd March - @standcomedyclub 10th - 15th March - @sohotheatre 27th - 28th March - @artsattheofs 18th April - @homemcr 13th June - @brighton_dome Bristol’s @almataverntheatre TBC!
