Sometimes you have to look back before you can look forward. And that's what Niels Nielsen does in this stand-up special. He has gone through his entire back catalog, all the way back from when he first stood on a stand-up stage at the age of 18, to today where he, at the age of 27, is looking forward to doing his first big one man show next year. In this special, Niels has put together a veritable POTPOURRI of jokes and highlights from his life so far in the world of comedy. Other than that, is there any real theme to the special? Nope! Not apart from the fact that we should all just laugh and enjoy ourselves from start to finish. But you can't complain about that as such. After all, it's a comedy special! The special was recorded at ICC Theater in Copenhagen on 19/10-2024 during this year's UP Festival in front of 45 happy people.
Everything will be turned up when Simon goes on tour with his latest show ‘EXTRA EXTRA’ in spring 2025 and for the next several months. A show that takes your breath away, like a well-placed jiu-jitsu chokehold, with equal parts reflections on the extravagant moments of his career and the brutal constraints of everyday life. From private jets in the US to reflux in Solrød. From kimchi to potato chips. From (finally) becoming a father in a tornado of poor sperm quality and fertility treatments, to losing his own Irish father in a cloud of tobacco smoke and lukewarm Guinness. The atmosphere in Simon's ‘ad libitum’ bar is fun, honest and generous - do you want an EXTRA? Or as Simon puts it: “It's going to be grand, spectacular, sensational, pompous and yes... EXTRA EXTRA!”
Talegaver Til Børn celebrated its 15th anniversary in December 2007 with three sold-out shows at Forum. The FBI's annual charity show was produced in collaboration with Unicef. For 15 years, between Christmas and New Year's Eve, people have been able to laugh for a good cause in the company of the country's best stand-up comedians, and the 2007 shows definitely lived up to the success of previous years.

In spring 2016, Christian Fuhlendorff is ready with a new one-man show, “It doesn't matter what others think, right?”, which this time emphasizes fun over an actual theme. But then again, maybe the theme is that it just has to be hilarious!
I think we've all been longing for something to laugh about. And I've really missed getting out and performing and meeting my beloved live audiences. I can't wait to see them all in the venues. This time it will be pure stand-up from the top shelf. In order to tour during a pandemic and war, you need an easily adaptable set-up... so all I'm bringing is the microphone, myself... and jokes - lots of jokes. Get ready... it's going to be a blast!
In 1998 at Sct. Jørgens Skole in Næstved, the then 14-year-old Heino Hansen wrote a Danish essay that had his class in stitches. The otherwise shy and anonymous Heino became the funniest kid in the class from then on, and Heino Hansen was born! In Heino's first comedy show, you're taken back to the day he realized he was funny.
Are you ready for an honest and funny insight into life from the perspective of a 40-year-old family man? From hair loss and all-inclusive vacations to couples' dinners and parent-teacher conferences, Fuhlendorff sheds light on the big and small challenges that come with mid-life.
Niels Nielsen is ready with his first solo show Moments of excitement. It will be a comedy show that, despite the title, is packed with surprising twists and insanely funny jokes from start to finish. Just as we know Niels from his sketches, songs and, not least, always well-prepared stand-up.
One minute you're biting your nails at world events, and the next you're laughing in impotence. Michael Schøt has spent most of his stand-up career in the space between these two emotions. His ability to capture the zeitgeist here and now, but playfully observe it from the outside, has thrilled not only audiences, but also critics - who over the years have attached words like “one of the best stand-up comedians in Denmark”, “a comic elemental force”, ‘virtuoso’ and “the absolute sharpest and fastest satirist in the media” to him. Jubelpessimist is a show about an eternal optimist in a gloomy world. A shot of joy, warmth and laughter for the dark times.
With the new show Optur, it's time to laugh and have a good time again, where Simon Talbot in his usual style transforms themes from his own life, such as hair loss, social media, cats, gaming, nose hair, Danish laws, the contrast of growing up with a Jehovah's Witness mother and Irish street boy father, married life, women's overly hot baths, and much much more, into jokes we can all laugh at. Over the past year, Simon has had stress reactions, spent too much time on social media, watched (way) too much Tiger King and acquired a sugar addiction, which he turns into a brand new Danish-language comedy show.
