Upcoming season he will direct <em>The cunning little Vixen <\/em>(Jan\u00e1\u010dek, in Dutch) at Dutch National Touring Opera and he will return to the Dutch National Opera Academy to stage <em>Il Campanello<\/em> (Donizetti). He studied <em>Regie f\u00fcr Musik- und Sprechtheater, Performative K\u00fcnste<\/em>\u00a0with Professor Sebastian Baumgarten at the Theaterakademie August Everding in Munich.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">Before pursuing his interest in theatre, he graduated as Master of Science in Cultural Sociology from the University of Amsterdam in 2016. During a stage-directing internship with David B\u00f6sch at the Dutch National Opera (DNO), he acquired his first theatre experiences in opera. At DNO he then got to know the chief-dramaturg Klaus Bertisch and subsequently worked for him as assistant-dramaturg. Here, he also worked as assistant stage-director for the production\u00a0<em>Juditha Triumphans\u00a0<\/em>staged by Floris Visser. Simultaneously, Rennik-Jan started to focus more on staging his own projects, mainly in music theatre but spoken theatre as well. In the past years he made productions for the Dutch National Touring Opera (<em>Die sch\u00f6ne Magelone<\/em>, Brahms), Stadttheater Bremerhaven (<em>The Apple Tree<\/em>, Bock), the Dutch National Opera Academy (<em>Transformations<\/em>, Susa | Un mari \u00e0 la porte, Offenbach | <em>Bastien und Bastienne<\/em>, Mozart | <em>La serva Padrona<\/em>, Pergolesi), the Delft Chamber Music Festival, the Theaterakademie August Everding (<em>Ariodante,\u00a0<\/em>H\u00e4ndel | <em>Pierrot Lunaire,\u00a0<\/em>Sch\u00f6nberg | <em>Geschichten, die keine sind<\/em>,<em>\u00a0<\/em>Musil) and SALIX kameropera (<em>The Bear<\/em>, Walton | <em>Non muore mai<\/em>, Respighi | <em>Le Bal Masqu\u00e9<\/em>, Poulenc). SALIX kameropera is theatre group for young opera talents that Rennik-Jan started and of which he is the artistic leader. Last august they celebrated their premi\u00e8re of the composition <em>Over Tijd<\/em> at the Grachtenfestival. Recently he also led the workshop <em>De Apenrots &#8211; Reflections on masculinity on stage<\/em> for the opera studio of the Dutch National Opera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rennik-Jan Neggers (1993, Helmond, The Netherlands) is an upcoming stage-director in music theatre.
