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!

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...
It was to be the BIGGEST comedy show ever on Danish soil when Anders Matthesen celebrated his 25th anniversary with the show “Anden 25”. More than 89,000 festive audiences saw the show, and “Anden 25” became the best reviewed Anders Matthesen show ever.

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!”

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.
