It's very well possible that this vehicle served 2 purposes: a mobile home and stage. It's very likely that the stage was used to generate an income while travelling.

I think the actress used the name Andrine Savelli.
And I don't speak Dutch, but I think the conversion was done by N.R.Crt

Almost there! Andrine Savelli is indeed the name I was after.  :thumbsup:

The article that you've found doesn't mention the builders name, only that he was an engineer.

N.R.Ct is an abbreviation for a newspaper (Ct= Courant).

I have another article with the full name of the builder.
