Robbie Wallin
Robbie Wallin is an absolute jack-of-all-trades in the creative sector. Actor, director, presenter, music composer, and theatre maker. After graduating from the Amsterdam University of the Arts, he rapidly built a versatile resume in which all of these disciplines come together.
As a director and composer, Robbie moves effortlessly between raw theatre and grand opera. He directed the performance HARD/T, took on the direction of the Youth Theatre Gala 2025, and recently created the music theatre production Donnie (winner of the Silver Cricket award) for Poldertheater in collaboration with Dutch National Opera & Ballet — supported by a live band. At the end of this year, he will return to the Opera in collaboration with Right About Now for the revival of Lennox.
As a presenter, Robbie is the permanent face for the charities of the Postcode Lottery. In addition to his on-camera work, he is a versatile host on stages throughout the Netherlands. From the main stage at Oerol to the Dag van de Literatuur, Robbie is known for his energetic, witty, and connecting presentation style. His previous hosting credits include the Dutch Theatre Gala 2024 at Internationaal Theater Amsterdam, Mensen Zeggen Dingen Late Night at Theater Bellevue, and various programs across the country.
As an actor, Robbie regularly writes and performs in his own shows. Together with Buleshkaj, he created the production Godenzonen. Following successful summer runs at Oerol and De Parade, the performance toured all over the Netherlands, from De Kleine Komedie to the Johan Cruyff ArenA. Furthermore, he performs in productions by companies like de Toneelmakerij (Naar Ndakaaru zwemmen) and alternates between the stage and the screen, with roles in series such as Flikken Rotterdam and Medisch Centrum West.
To complete the creative spectrum, Robbie also makes music as part of the duo Josh&Robs. Producing and performing their own material, the duo released the EP Op een Beetje Geluk and performed at festivals nationwide.
