Eric de Vroedt (Rotterdam, 1972) is a Dutch theater director, writer and actor. After his graduation from the Arnhem School of Acting in 1996 he realized his ambition was to be a director and writer rather than an actor. He is an established guest director at Toneelgroep Amsterdam and Schauspielhaus Bochum in Germany, and has directed for Theater Dortmund. At Toneelgroep Amsterdam he directs plays predominantly from an Anglo-Sakson repertoire. For the German theaters, he elects plays from a repertoire of Dutch works instead. His plays are a reflection on current socio-political issues, in the form of a satire. His plays are hyper realistic, where humor and earnesty are intertwined. His most ambitious and famous work is the mightysociety-project, started in 2004.
