Synopsis

A deadpan Dutch-Canadian bowling-alley owner teaches you how to run your own bowling alley in three lessons: Lesson One — buy an alley and beg a €10,000 loan for the bowling shoes the old owner didn't include; Lesson Two — feed your customers using one shampoo bottle filled with a year of free restaurant ketchup packets; Lesson Three — master modern technology, because an Encarta CD-ROM is every information you will ever need. Plus 'Just the Strikes': sanitizer systems, fingernail maintenance, and tucking your shirt into your pants to look very big.

Réalisation

Elco De Boer is a Dutch-Canadian performer and filmmaker based in Halton Hills, Ontario, Canada. He is the creator and performer of Van Bokworst, a deadpan, penny-pinching Dutch bowling-alley owner, in a series of self-shot short films released on YouTube (@vanbokworstbowlingalley) since 2023. 'Van Bokworst Teaches You How to Run Your Own Bowling Alley' (2026) is a new stitched edit of three of those films. De Boer writes, directs, shoots and performs the work himself.
