Fieke Opdam

Fieke Opdam went from spending nearly ten years as a cloistered nun to becoming a stand-up comedian. Today, she uses humour and storytelling to explore trauma, identity, resilience and the unexpected things that can grow from difficult experiences. Her story moves from religious life to the stage, asking us to consider whether the experiences that change us might also shape the things we eventually have to offer the world.
