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.

The show is about finding yourself by looking inside yourself. More specifically, it is about recognizing that you are a bad feminist and finding peace with that. About not letting your opinions be dictated by others and about how some people cannot claim ownership of a word or a definition. It is about there being room to be bad at something and that it is perfectly okay. In the spring of 2017, you can experience Zulu Comedy Galla Talent Award winner Ane Høgsberg in her debut one-woman show for the first time.

”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!

In Tobias Dybvad's first oneman show, the comedian draws on his own life and experiences. He tells stories from his early childhood to life in his 30s. Tobias Dybvad is a comedian who stops and sees things the rest of us might not notice. He provokes the audience with his direct approach to topics you didn't think it was possible to joke about. It works and this first oneman show from Tobias Dybvad has been praised across the country, where it has sold out night after night. According to Politiken, Tobias Dybvad “has a near absolute ear for delivering punchlines”, and it is this talent combined with a “thoroughly likeable” nature that has made him a highly sought-after comedian. He manages to challenge the genre like few others and never chooses the easy solutions. This makes meeting Tobias Dybvad a terrifically funny and challenging experience where nothing is sacred.
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.
