There are more than two hours of classic stand-up when ANDEN BRINGER OUT is just Anders, a stool and a microphone.
‘Finding Fanon’ is the first part in a series of works by artists Larry Achiampong and David Blandy; inspired by the lost plays of Frantz Fanon, (1925-1961) a politically radical humanist whose practice dealt with the psychopathology of colonisation and the social and cultural consequences of decolonisation. In the film, the two artists negotiate Fanon’s ideas, examining the politics of race, racism and the post-colonial, and how these societal issues affect their relationship. Their conflict is played out through a script that melds found texts and personal testimony, transposing their drama to a junkyard houseboat at an unspecified time in the future. Navigating the past, present and future, Achiampong and Blandy question the promise of globalisation, recognising its impact on their own heritage.

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.
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.
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 the spring of 2002, six of Denmark's best stand-up comedians joined forces under the name Den Ægte Vare. The goal was to show the audience six different styles in the original form of stand-up - completely stripped of “borrowed” jokes and clap-friendly song numbers. Through 24 shows, Varen delivered the goods in sold-out theaters across the country. The tour ended with 3 nights in the circus building, and this recording is the first of these shows.
Danish stand-up by Lars Hjortshøj, Lasse Rimmer, Anders Fjelsted, Omar Marzouk, Anders Matthesen, Rune Klan, Uffe Holm, Sebastian Dorset, Jonatan Spang, Klaus Bondam, Dan Andersen and Povl Erik Carstensen.
Danish comedy's sharpest tongue, Thomas Hartmann, toured in the fall of 2008 with his 4th one man show Extrospekt, where he proved to audiences and critics alike why he is considered one of the very best and funniest comedians in Denmark. His twisted brain takes us past everything from religion, technology, social values and supermarket queues, to toilet paper and pensioners' manic need for gardening, and his trademark equilibristic word games show a comedian in his most versatile show yet.
“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.
Sindssyg Kælling is Sanne Søndergaard's new solo show. A personal, vulnerable and brutally honest show about being labeled by the whole world just because you speak your mind. Sanne Søndergaard is one of Denmark's sharpest social critics, known from columns in Information, books like Kære Dødsbog and her standup shows. Now she's ready with one of her most blunt shows to date, where she takes on the media, the audience and even her own social circle, skewering the many judgmental voices she has encountered over the years as a critical and outspoken satirist.

Extra wisdom is in store for the Danes when Adam & Noah embark on a new nationwide tour in 2017, following up on this year's sold-out ‘Sker Der Dansker’ tour. Adam & Noah explain: Sker der dansker.. We fired our press release writer. He wanted 5K to write a text. Believe it! Does this guy think we can't spell? Tss... Racist! Anyway, we're doing a new show. It's time for you to sit down and get some wisdom crammed into your heads. If you don't listen, you're gonna be bro-style. If you don't listen, you're gonna be bro-style. The show is so sick that even the Ministry of Education has approved it as a graduate program in wisdom. I swear they have! Well... come on... we live in Denmark honestly there is nothing else to do anyway!!! And we have made sure that the ticket price is cheap so a whole bro family of 9 has enough money to see the show! Seriously!!! Yalla fuck off we'll see you.
“Nothing is sacred - as long as it's funny enough” is Thomas Hartmann's motto... and it's usually always funny when he's around. Thomas Hartmann is behind the scripts for Far From Las Vegas, he has provided material for Jan Gintberg and Mette Lisby and TV programs such as “Ugen der gak, F.C. Lisby, Årets der gak” and others.
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.
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.
Stand-up about love, hate - and everything in between. From the first awkward love letters in 70s schoolyards to booty calls at the nursing home - love is a travel partner throughout life. ‘Love’ is the eighth one-man show from one of Denmark's most prolific comedians, Thomas Hartmann, and is about exactly what the title suggests. Love, or lack thereof, is an emotion that affects us all, whether we are recipients, senders or outside spectators, and when you have Hartmann's outlook on life, it is an almost inexhaustible source of amusement.
With Talle Alene I Verden, Simon Talbot makes a big, fat and hilarious statement about his position as one of today's greatest comedians.
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!
