Biography

René van Vooren was the stage name of René Sleeswijk Jr., born in Amsterdam on April 21, 1931, the son of theater producer René Sleeswijk Sr. He adopted the pseudonym to avoid confusion. In the 1950s, he collaborated with various Dutch artists, including Tom Manders. In 1966, he became part of the duo De Mounties after the death of the previous straight man, Fred Plevier. Although not friends offstage, Piet Bambergen (loud, short, and stout) and René van Vooren (tall and distinguished), created a uniquely comedic partnership reminiscent of an inverted Laurel and Hardy. His theatrical successes, all alongside Piet Bambergen, included Drie in de pan (also featuring Joke Bruys), Goeie Buren (with Rudi Falkenhagen, John Leddy, and Diana Dobbelman), Huwelijk in de steigers (with Rudi Falkenhagen and Carry Tefsen), Lief zijn voor elkaar, and Privé voor twee (with Rudi Falkenhagen and Marlies Alcmaer).

Following Bambergen's death in 1996, René van Vooren joined Joop van den Ende Producties, a Dutch commercial TV company, as a creative producer. His productions included shows starring André van Duin.

René passed away in Blaricum on November 25, 1998.
