Niels Hausgaard's show at Vega, from his 2006 tour "Vildskab" (Wildness).
As usual, the show is devoid of political messages and discussions about global warming. And you probably shouldn't expect Champen to take the lead in saving a bunch of pandas. Instead, you can look forward to approximately 90 minutes of direct and honest comedy, where Uffe, accompanied only by his microphone, will entertain you with his everyday observations, delivered in a way that only he can.
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.
Denmark's Stokkefar is now ready with his third and funniest one-man show to date. This also marks the end of the trilogy, which tells the story of one of the country's most popular, beloved and award-winning comedians. (Did he write this himself?...shut up!).
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.
At a time when everyone is turning off the gas and saving electricity, it can be difficult to remain optimistic and hopeful for better times. But fear not! The renowned singing lodge Ørkenens Sønner (Sons of the Desert) has created a show that will blow all evil and gloomy thoughts out of the way. The heat hasn't been turned down, but the charm has been turned up! This time, the brave Loge brothers turn their gaze to sensual Paris. In a festive fireworks display of French temptations, historical and piquant scenes are performed, and as always with the awareness that it's all about keeping your finger on the pulse.
With Jakob Thrane's new comedy show Sart, he gives the audience plenty of opportunities to laugh at postmodern man. Have we all become too delicate? With his new show, Jakob exposes the delicate sides of us all, but is embarrassingly aware that every time he points at others, there are three fingers pointing back at himself and a thumb pointing at someone standing off to the side.
“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.
One of Denmark's most hyped comedy duos, Martin Johannes Larsen and Rasmus Wallbridge, head up the annual charity show.
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!
In February 2011, two of Denmark's most exciting comedians, Christian Fuhlendorff and Tobias Dybvad, embarked on their "Livet i nødsporet" (Life in the Fast Lane) tour. They performed for 28 days straight because they had "a little" tax debt they needed to pay off. Now you can see these two delightful, quirky comedians in the hilarious show they performed on their grueling tour.
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.
That's right, you read that right, I'm back! Not only that, but I have a new show coming your way at Musikhuset. It's about being a man, but not feeling masculine. About being embarrassingly aware of your own limitations and deeply frustrated at not being able to move them. It's about all the worries and frustrations I go through as a husband and father. About the desire to be able to change myself, combined with a burning hope to just accept who and what I am. It's about crazy experiences and what we all struggle with, life, thoughts, emotions, and all the shit we can't control. It's about being the opposite of SUPERMAN, namely Elias Ehlers. Most of all, it's all about me! Me! Me! Me! Me! ....MORE ME! - Elias Ehlers

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.
Contemporary topics with weight are taken up and dealt with. And through magic and in a caustic style, Rune, with his well-known self-ironic distance, makes room for new thoughts.
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.
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!”
Huxi Bach actually has doubts. But doubts are good, because then you're not so sure after all. The only certainty is that Huxi is ready to take on big and small issues.
