Earlier today the semi-final allocation draw took place at the Palazzo Madama e Casaforte degli Acaja in Turin and during that show, it became clear that The Netherlands will be in the first half of the first semi-final! All the while, the Dutch representative S10 is working on her participation and today the members of her creative team were unveiled!

As the Dutch delegation is in development, it is already clear who will be working alongside S10 on her performance for Turin. And those aren’t exactly small named either! They are: Wouter van Ransbeek, Marnix Kaart and Henk Jan van Beek.

Wouter van Ransbeek is the former creative director of het Internationaal Theater Amsterdam (the International Theater of Amsterdam) and now he is the appointed Creative Supervisor for the Dutch delegation! Together with S10 he will be developing the concept of the act and will be supervising the entire process.

The next name is Marnix Kaart, but not at all a new name in show business! This director, a role he will also have in the delegation, has been producing big TV-shows and live events for years with the highlight on his resume: last year’s Eurovision Song Contest in Rotterdam! With both that experience in his backpack as well as his creative mind, he will be the man translating the concept to a dashing live performance!

And last but certainly not least there is Henk Jan van Beek. We all know how important lighting is in a Eurovision performance and that’s exactly what Henk Jan, with experience both inside The Netherlands and abroad, will be responsible for in the Dutch delegation. Just like Marnix, Henk Jan has also worked on the Eurovision Song Contest in Rotterdam last year and even before that, in Kyiv in 2017 on the lighting in OG3NE’s performance of, how fitting: ‘Lights and Shadows’!

The result of the joint efforts can be seen in the first half of the first semi-final, as that’s when S10 will be performing. The exact spot in the running order will be revealed later, as well as the song S10 will be singing.
