Actress An Miller reacts emotionally to Gorissen’s death. She took lessons from him at Studio Herman Teirlinck in the 1990s. “We had amazing lessons from him at the Studio. At one point we even lived together in a squat. I learned a lot from him,” Miller tells VRT NWS.
“After my studies, we worked together on various theater productions. For every piece in which I still play, the criterion for me is: how would Peter react to this? I am ‘ hearing the same thing from many colleagues.”
“Peter was an amazing actor. When you were playing with him, you could just look at him and you just had to react. That’s his amazing power: you believe everything he gives. “
Despite his long career, Gorissen was not the most famous actor in our country. “That’s right, but above all he went out for his passion. Patrick was not the man who made concessions. But he was undoubtedly one of the best actors we had , if not the best in Flanders.”
In addition to their professional collaboration, a friendship has developed between Miller and Gorissen over the years. “Peter and I were always in contact. My husband Filip (Peeters, ed.) played with him in ‘The Hell of Tangier’. Peter has become one of our family friends. He would often coming over and he knew our children too.”
