Carly Blair is a not-your-typical-American American who's been trying to shove her square peg-shaped self into Amsterdam's round hole with admirable, or perhaps foolish, persistence for the last ten or so years. When she's not embarrassing her parents and menagerie of ex-lovers with her comedy, she works as a freelance writer for corporate clients and exercises frenetically so as to minimize the chance of having a double chin in her gig photos.

A sought-after act through all Europe, this German comedian proves that our neighbours in the East certainly have a sense of humor! So expand your horizons with Michael, as he dwells on the challenges of being German!

Mash, like from the Russian cartoon ‘Masha and the bear’, only she’s also the bear. This up-and-coming comedian likes to reveal her deepest secrets on stage. Good for us, that her therapist is not as good of an audience, as you are.

Comedian. American. Dutchman. (And the voice of Trump in the ‘Netherlands Second’ video with over 50 million views online.) You may know him from Boom Chicago, Comedy Central, BNR, VPRO, ZDF, or from his YouTube show ‘United States of Europe.’

Shapiro spent his first 25 years in Chicago, studying theater at Northwestern University. In 1994, he came to the Netherlands to work for Boom Chicago comedy theater and inadvertently help trigger a Dutch comedy boom that produced Comedy Train, Comedy Cafe and De Lama’s. In 2007 Shapiro became a Dutch TV host on Comedy Central News ‘because Dutch news is news too.’ He has appeared on Dutch television shows such as GTST & ONM. And he has worked with BNR fm, Time Out Amsterdam, BNN/VARA HumorTV, and VPRO – where he helped Zondag met Lubach win the Dutch Televizier Ring.

Greg lives in Amsterdam with his artist wife Inez. He has two bilingual children and a Black Labrador who will lick you if she gets the chance. He recently bought a small barn in France with a big hole in the roof.

Admission starting at 8.00PM, the show starts at 8.15PM. This show is organized by Dutchies, so 8.15PM is truly 8.15PM. We will have a short break to refill your drinks. No mouth masks are required and we won't have a stick-in-your-nose policy upon entrance... As long as the regulations permit it, of course!

In case you plan on attending with someone, please order the tickets together so we can prepare a table specifically for you.
