First aid is my passion and my life. One traffic light turns red, another turns green: there's always something to do in Almelo. One of Herman Finkers' most famous quotes. Herman Finkers has been writing and performing theater programs since 1979. His programs are difficult to describe. He was probably best described in the Utrechts Nieuwsblad: 'master of the double punchline,' 'witty excess that does no harm,' 'sublime nonsense.' EHBO is my passion and my life is Herman Finkers' fourth program, recorded in the Leidse Schouwburg.
Writing
Double punchlines that hit twice as hard.
Acting
Finkers' deadpan delivery is a national treasure.

Director
Jop Pannekoek
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Finkers is a regional icon in Twente, where his dry humor and local references have made him a beloved figure far beyond typical stand-up fame.
The 'witty excess that does no harm' description captures his entire philosophy: comedy that never punches down, only sideways at life's small absurdities.
