Things have been slow for too long now. Really slow. We need some speed - and Denmark gets it in Jakob Thrane's new comedy show.
The latest stand-up from Denmark's biggest comedian. "Anden paa coke?" toured the country in 2006 and was seen live by over 100,000 people. Anden takes the stand-up comedy genre to a level never before seen in Denmark. There are backdrops, there is scenography, there is multimedia, but at its core, it is still just stand-up comedy at its very best!
The show is about finding yourself by looking inside yourself. More specifically, it is about recognizing that you are a bad feminist and finding peace with that. About not letting your opinions be dictated by others and about how some people cannot claim ownership of a word or a definition. It is about there being room to be bad at something and that it is perfectly okay. In the spring of 2017, you can experience Zulu Comedy Galla Talent Award winner Ane Høgsberg in her debut one-woman show for the first time. She will be accompanied by a surprise warm-up act, which (without giving too much away) proves that the stand-up industry is not made up of white, oppressive men, but is actually full of supportive and good colleagues who can recognize talent when they see it and are always willing to back it up and, well, well, warm up for one of the new stars in the Danish stand-up firmament.
Now that all the boring and practical stuff is out of the way, I'll tell you a bit about the show. Well, I'm not going to tell you what the show is about. You'll have to go and see it. But I can tell you a bit about how it was recorded, because it's a bit different from what you're used to. Since my shows are often very different from night to night and since I've sat in an editing room with a recording and thought; “F*ck, sh*t, that joke was much better the last time I did it”, this time I made the decision to record the show in Horsens, Odense, Aarhus and Copenhagen and cut the 4 shows together into one. Whether it was a good decision, I'll leave it up to you to judge, I'm certainly very satisfied. So all I can say is, enjoy... that is, if you pick it up.
Carsten Bang: Bang! Jeg er død
From spring 2015, Tobias Dybvad can be seen in his next one-man show “Er det ikke dig fra Dybvad?” which, despite the title, is not an extension of the popular TV program but a self-satirical insight into life behind and as TV host Dybvad. It's about the balancing act of being known for exposing celebrities and not becoming one of those he points the finger at.
One of Denmark's most hyped comedy duos, Martin Johannes Larsen and Rasmus Wallbridge, head up the annual charity show.
Danish singer and comedian Annika Aakjaer first one woman show.
Tal for dig selv (Speak for Yourself) is Anders Matthesen's third one-man show. The show is divided into two sets. In the first set, Det gode sæt (The Good Set), Anders Matthesen addresses all topics from a positive outlook on life, while in the second set, Det onde sæt (The Bad Set), he takes a negative attitude.
Christian Fuhlendorff follow up on critical acclaim with the new one man show: "To make a short story long" "I have a dog and a house, a girlfriend and a daughter. I live even in the world's happiest country, Denmark! I have all the pieces to be for. I just do not know if I'm happy. For a house also means also debt and concerns that a dog does chores and to take the piss on the floor, a girlfriend means expectations and compromises, a daughter means responsibilities - and sometimes to take the piss on the floor, AND we must not forget that Denmark thus also one of the countries with the highest suicide rate. Let me put it another way: Do I be happy? " The question put Christian Fuhlendorff himself in his third one-man show "To make a short story long," which premiered at Bremen Theatre in Copenhagen 19 September 2014. In its previous shows, he took the audience on a journey into in his quirky and comedic universe. This time is no exception.
This is my first DVD. It's a recording of my show from 2008 at Comedy Zoo in Copenhagen. The show is called “My first one man show”, which I think is an original title, and it's even factually correct. It could also have been called “My second one man show”, which would probably be a more original title, but still factually incorrect. I've chosen to write some of the synopsis myself in order to limit the number of adjectives and sales phrases, like the ones right after this text, because all I really want to say is: Hope you like the show and enjoy...
Et comedy show til nørden i os alle! I sit nye show, Science Faction, tager Thomas udgangspunkt i sin evige interesse for underlige facts; “Jeg har altid haft den regel, at jeg ikke står på scenen og påstår noget er sandt, hvis det ikke er tilfældet,” siger Thomas Hartmann. “Dette bliver, i det nye show, mere aktuelt end nogensinde.” Science Faction bliver som vi kender det fra Hartmann - klassisk, verbal stand-up comedy!
As usual, the show is devoid of political messages and discussions about global warming. And you probably shouldn't expect Champen to take the lead in saving a bunch of pandas. Instead, you can look forward to approximately 90 minutes of direct and honest comedy, where Uffe, accompanied only by his microphone, will entertain you with his everyday observations, delivered in a way that only he can.
Anders Matthesen (Danish stand-up) performs his new show "Anders"
“Sometimes I am enthusiastic – other times I am resigned. Sometimes practical and logical – other times reckless. Sometimes I am full of confidence – other times just drunk.” Look forward to another philosophical, eye-opening, and highly entertaining show from Carsten Bang, who this time comes face to face with several faces of himself.
Highly satirical and personal show about remembering not only to survive but also to live while surviving. Including bizarre detours to everything from sumo wrestling nets, Glyngøre hand sanitizer, press, politics, percentages, privilege blindness and other things with a ‘p’. And of course everything that lands on the shelf ‘The heated polo match between the sexes’.
A show about the search for love. Tobias has done very little active dating in his life. But now he's taken a serious plunge into everything from dating apps and unsolicited social media macking to asking out women he meets on the street. This has resulted in a string of failed pick-up attempts.
Join Melvin Kakooza, Mahamad Habane, Hadi Ka-koush and Joel Hyrland on Denmark's biggest comedy arena tour ever. It will be historic, unique and not least hilarious.
Anders "Anden" Matthesen's critically acclaimed stand-up show from 2000-2001. About a show that shares its name with Børneradio's popular satire CD (which was made by the same man) ...but which is nevertheless something completely different! About a one-man show with four men on stage? About two hours of varied comedy, ranging from classic stand-up to music, sketches, and a host of guests.
”Anders Matthesen vender tilbage” til det klassiske stand-up comedy set-up: Nærværet, improvisationen, den platte joke - side om side med noget der måske endda kunne minde om en dyb tanke? Historier fra komikerens eget liv, opdigtet vrøvl, personlige meninger, eller påtagede provokationer. Præcis hvem komikeren er, og hvad han mener, er ikke vigtigt ... Det er den fælles oplevelse og de tanker der bliver sat i gang der tæller og vigtigst af alt: Grinet! Det er så befriende at få lov at grine i længere tid af gangen. Og Anders Matthesen ved kun én ting der er bedre end selv at grine: At se dig grine!
