Clara van Santen
Clara van Santen (1740–1792) was a Dutch stage actor and ballet dancer. Life

She was born to the vine merchant Anthony van Santen (1702–1745) and Johanna Zomer (1701–1764). She was engaged at the Amsterdamse Schouwburg in 1759–1782. She was engaged as both an actor as a ballet dancer, as it was common in that time period to both act, dance (and sing) when possible. Her career as an actor was moderate and not given good critic. However, as a ballet dancer, Clara van Santen was referred to as the best indigenous dancer in the Netherlands in a time period when the elite dancers in the Netherlands were normally engaged from France or Italy rather than Dutch.
