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.
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.
Look forward to experiencing the phenomenon Adam & Noah, who fought their way to the top of Danish comedy in record time. Here from their last and biggest tour of Denmark.
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!
There are more than two hours of classic stand-up when ANDEN BRINGER OUT is just Anders, a stool and a microphone.

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.
Mere end 100 min stand-up hvor en veloplagt Uffe Holm reflekterer over udviklingen de sidste 30 år. Uffe er ikke blevet en bitter gammel mand - han synes måske bare at det er lidt fejt, at der ikke var en eneste pige i klassen der var glatbarberet i 91. Vil du se en af Danmarks bedste komikere skyde med skarpt fra sit nostalgiske hjørne, så står du med den helt rigtige dvd i hånden.
Danish singer and comedian Annika Aakjaer first one woman show.
It's jokes, it's pure stand-up, and as usual, it's a bit too much. But is it okay to be a little slutty when you're a mother? If not, how do you control it? And does she mean it when she says she's not bitter about being a single mother?
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.
Shut up, there are a lot of things tumbling around in the head of someone from Northern Jutland, who grew up in a small town where the nineties were a thing a few years after they had kind of let go of the rest of Denmark. 38 full and half educations and careers attempted to get started have drawn Anne Bakland from Østervrå across the country and to Copenhagen, where she landed with her feet firmly planted on the stand-up stage with a microphone in hand and a bag full of both questions and answers about all the bullshit of life.
With the show HELDIG, Mark is on a mission he describes as: “To bring the laughter back when there's sometimes not a hell of a lot to laugh about”. HELDIG is about getting a chance to embrace the bumps in the road instead of always painting the devil on the wall. The idea for the new one-man show HELDIG actually originated in BØVL, where he worked with the moral: “that it doesn't pay to worry, because your greatest fears rarely come true”. As it turned out, this moral had a tragicomic outcome in the comedian's own life. A week after the show premiered on TV, Mark got the news from his doctor that they thought he had cancer. "The human in me was scared, but the comedian in me was deeply impressed by the timing! Two things are certain: 1: I can't wait to get out there with my new show. 2: I don't dare bring a big moral" - says an otherwise fit-for-fight Mark le Fêvre.
'Levemand' will be a reunion with the playful satirical comedy style that has made Dybvad one of the country's most popular comedians.
It's hard not to prick up your ears when Linda P shares her life story. She has been a slut, tried to distinguish between Linda Petersen and Linda P, suffered from headaches, and given up her wild lifestyle to become "normal" and a so-called "model citizen." BUT... is it really that easy to stay on track and live a quiet life without causing trouble? Has Linda been able to avoid messing up her closest relationships? And what about love? Is it even possible to be in a relationship when you are born a wild child? Look forward to Linda P's fifth one-woman show, where she once again shares herself and her frustrations about her ingrained "fuck-up gene."
