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.
Has Simon Talbot become too grown up and Copenhagen-ish? It's time for some soul-searching. Simon Talbot will visit Magion on Thursday, April 14th and take a look at himself in his third one man show, “Mr. Copenhagen”.

“I personally hate having to read the back of DVDs for 100 years, mostly because they're full of words and not computer games. So here's what you get if you buy/rent/have this DVD burned: - My First One Man Show “Damp” - (See bonus material) Hope you enjoy the DVD. Huge regards from Simon Talbot.”
The Danish magician and comedian Rune Klan toured Denmark - including Bornholm and Greenland - with “The Striped Show” in fall 2013 and spring 2014. The show was performed 87 times and was seen by more than 50,000 enthusiastic audience members. Now you can look forward to seeing or re-watching “The Striped Show”, where Rune the joker once again shows that he masters the combination of comedy and magic.
In “The Blue Show”, Rune Klan jumps out of the magic closet and tells us about his relationship to - and with - tricks from the subtle world of secret magic. This time, magic has been given a larger place in the show than before. A more stylish show than ever before, including a guest appearance by Danish electronic music wunderkind Mike Sheridan. But also with lots of crazy and makeshift effects, as we know it from Rune's universe. Of course, it's all delivered with Rune's characteristic twinkle in his eye and sense of lightning-fast reactions. The show is recorded in Utzon's beautiful Musikhus in Esbjerg.
Simon Talbot has just finished his epic tour with the show ‘Make Denmark Great Again’. Now the Danish comedian is setting his sights on world domination and touring Scandinavia with his brand new English-language stand-up show ‘Danish Invasion’. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the foreign shows were canceled, while the Danish part of the tour went ahead.
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!
Can we Danes learn something from the always confident Americans? According to Simon Talbot, who has been touring the United States in the hope of the big breakthrough. This has made Simon smarter on Americans, politics and comedy. A knowledge he will now use to 'Make Denmark Great Again'. In the one-man show of the same name, Talbot offers funny and embarrassing video clips from his American escapades, in which he has appeared in the hunt for 'The American Dream' at everything from taco shops to major venues - but has repeatedly had to prove that the meeting between Danish and American humor is not always a match.
Rune is not a fan of traditional classic magic shows where you wear a tuxedo, top hat and take yourself very seriously. Paradoxically, Rune has been heavily inspired by the big Las Vegas shows with big props, but that's where the party stops... It's still Rune Klan. The show is called “Rune Klan Goes Large” and that's exactly what he does - magnifies it all up! Rune toured with “Going Large” in 2007.
Three different stand-up-comedy shows by Rune Klan. All of which include the habitual use of spoof magic tricks, jokes and the like. The shows were recorded at three different locations in Copenhagen, Denmark and collected on this DVD.
3 years after the success of ‘The Striped Show’, the world-renowned magician and comedian Rune Klan is back on Danish stages with a new one-man show. His fifth in a row. The comedy and sharp repartee are in a league of their own, but the magic remains the focal point and unique trademark. With ‘Childless’, the charismatic Rune Klan will offer plenty of surprises, new tricks and groundbreaking ideas with his disarming manner, and a constant curiosity for the audience he loves to pamper. Despite his 40-plus years of good living, ‘The Clan’ doesn't yet have children. This, of course, means a lot of free time and plenty of room in the calendar to shame-practice a trick or joke to ultimate perfection.
When are you old? Is it when others think you are or is it only when you feel old yourself! In Thomas Hartmann's seventh one-man show, this question, along with many others, will be answered. Hartmann, who in some ways is forever young and in others has always been old, has reached a turning point in his life and casts his comedic eye both forward and backward in time.
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.
The show Hopeful is a reflection of Rune Klans life and the present. Created on the inspiration that has grown within him as he has become a father, husband and adult.
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.
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.
