Together with Lucas Vandervost, Luk Perceval, Warre Borgmans, and Johan Van Assche, he founded "Het Gezelschap Van De Witte Kraai" in 1980, a breath of fresh air in the theater landscape of the time. The group introduced 'thinking speaking' as a reaction to the 'shouting and pacing' in the city theaters.
