Roué Verveer: FF wat anders

On November 15, 2003, Ted recorded a special one hour performance in front of a sold-out crowd at Flushing Town Hall in Queens, New York. Taking on everything from fitness ("I belong to a gym now... well, I don't belong there--but I go") to relationships ("Being single is a struggle between loneliness and euphoria... loneliness before you go to bed at night, and euphoria the whole rest of the day.") Ted's unique blend of observational humor and physical comedy offers something for everyone.

This comedy/theatre show is the sequel to 'Micha Wertheim: Somewhere Else'. This second show starts exactly where the first show ended: in the same theatrical scenery, with the same robot. But this time Wertheim surprises his audience by showing up. He tells about how the first experimental comedy show was received and contemplates about the magic of theatre and art in a society about the right to exist of art in a society that allows less and less doubt and confusion. When Robot falls into a depression, the boundaries between theater and reality begin to blur.

The bigger the audiences for Dutch comedian Micha Wertheim’s shows became, the less he had to do to make them laugh. In one early show, he suggested that the audience would be better off without him. So in 2016, he acted upon this suggestion with an experiment that made theater history: he wasn't physically present onstage but somewhere else. The audience wasn't aware of this in advance, though they did get a hint in the form of a pre-recorded "live" radio interview from a remote studio. "I see my audience as my children," Wertheim says in this interview. "You have to educate them, and that’s what I’ve been doing for the past 15 years. At first you have to constantly be there watching them, but there comes a time when you have to trust them to get on with it without you." With some help from a robot, a printer, a stereo and a set of headphones, the members of his audience were able to make their own performance.

The first solo stand-up special of Russian comedian Sergey Orlov. He had been preparing this concert for a whole year, running it all over the country, twice a night he performed with this at the Cinema House in Moscow, and for the next 7 months it edited, re-edited, laid back and finally got out!

At the end of his last year tour, entitled “Special for Kids,” Danila Poperechny recorded this special in St. Petersburg and released it on YouTube. In many ways, two-hour “Special for Kids” (2020) is the sequel of the previous special “Impartial” (2018). This show is filled of Danila’s views on the little things in his life and on larger topics: political situation in Russia, funerals, relationships, self-deception and happiness.

Registration of the second theatre program by the Dutch comedy duo Droog Brood (Bas Hoeflaak and Peter van de Witte). The show is a sum of apparently separate scenes that show the human struggle and the desire for affection. Misunderstandings and clumsiness determine our interactions with each other, while meanwhile there is always the consciousness that love will bring us the deepest happiness. But affection is always present. The characters in this show fail, but ultimately they find an answer in the simplicity of the moment.
