Soula Notos is a comedian, actress, storyteller and theatre maker. She finished theater school with the absurd western Doctor, where do cowgirls dream about? She performed in various plays: like her own story Heimwee (Homesick), Radio Amigu (with Wijnand Stomp) and De Pensionado’s (at the Parade). She is a member of the Dutch Comedy Collective Comedyhuis and she is a regular storyteller at Mezrab. She made her Dutch national television début in 2011 with her comedy minute on the Dutch talk show The Half Moon. She was also a host of the tv-programme Gonzo.
Now she has written her first long theatrical piece in which she tells expressive, energetic, poetic stories full of self-mockery about growing up with different labels and how to deal with them without losing your mind.

“People always ask me: ‘where does your name come from? Greece? Oh, where you born there? No? Well, if you were born here, even if it is in Goirle, then you are normal Dutch, gewoon Nederlands.’ Sounds great, but am I? In what story did I live when you weren’t looking? What stories was I listening to? What were they telling me at home before I went to sleep?”
“Zonder franje, recht op haar publiek. Een verhaal delen met mensen die daar naar luisteren, dat is alles.” – de Volkskrant (over Heimwee)
“A no-frills play. Straightforward to her audience. Sharing a story with people who listen to it, that’s all.” – the Volkskrant about Homesick.

Soula Notos is een Nederlands-Griekse theatermaker, comedian, actrice, en verhalenverteller. Ze studeerde af aan de Theaterkade met de absurde western Doctor, where do cowgirls dream about? over een vrouwelijke held. Ze speelde haar voorstelling Heimwee (regie Wijnand Stomp) door heel Nederland. Verder stond ze o.a. met Peer Mascini op de Parade en met improvisatieband Kobra in het Bimhuis. Ze is lid van het Utrechtse Comedyhuis en ze is regelmatig te gast als verhalenverteller bij Mezrab. Ze was op tv te zien met haar comedyminuut in de talkshow De Halve Maan en als presentator van het programma Gonzo.
Ze heeft nu haar eerste avondvullende theatrale solovoorstelling geschreven, waarin ze op energieke wijze en met veel zelfspot persoonlijke verhalen vertelt over opgroeien met verschillende labels en hoe daarmee om te gaan zonder gek te worden.
‘Mensen vragen me vaak: “waar komt je naam vandaan? Griekenland… Oh, ben je daar ook geboren? Nee? In Goirle? Jezus… Ok, maar dan ben je dus gewoon Nederlands!” Klinkt goed. Maar wat is gewoon? Oftewel: in welk verhaal leefde ik toen zij niet keken? Naar welke verhalen luisterde ik als ik niet op school was? Welke verhalen werden mij verteld als ik bang was?’
“Zonder franje, recht op haar publiek. Een verhaal delen met mensen die daar naar luisteren, dat is alles.” – de Volkskrant (over Heimwee)
