Ane Høgsberg's second solo show is about one of the few things we all have in common: death. We encounter it several times in our lives, and we will all die one day. But how do we want to leave this world? What will be said at our funeral—and can we actually choose the animal we want to be reborn as? When Ane spent three weeks in the spring of 2018 fearing she had breast cancer, all these questions bubbled up—not in a scary way, but more like: Do they remember to make enough cake for the funeral reception? What song should be played in the church? And how will my childhood sweetheart take the news? Fortunately, Ane did not have cancer, but it set off a lot of thoughts: What is basically the craziest way to die, and who should definitely not inherit anything when the time comes?

I ”Plukker kameler” giver Bang sit bud på, hvordan man tackler uafklarede problemer med andre - og hvordan man accepterer dét, der egentlig strider imod ens idealer og ønsker; Man plukker kameler! Alle kommenterer og konfronterer alt og alle. Men hvad sker der ved det? Ingenting. Der er ingen selvransagelse og derfor ingen konsekvenser. Ingen lærer noget. Det hele går i ring. Fordi ingen plukker kameler!

In keeping with tradition, the popular comedy show is back, and this time it is Red Barnet that is behind it. This year's hosts are Michael Schøt and Christian Fuhlendorff.
It's my first real one-man show and it was really an amazing experience to be on tour with it. I think I took a chance with some of the topics, but luckily I have the best fans in the world who made it an amazing experience to do the show every single night. I always find it hard to say what a stand-up show is about, because in my world a stand-up show doesn't have to be about one thing. And neither does “INDEBRÆNDT”. It's about me. It's about society. It's about my view of society. And then it's about me becoming a father, my views on feminism, politics, drugs and the end of the world. But I think you should just buy the show and see it for yourself!
A stand-up show steeped in irony and sarcasm - to the extent that there is a difference. I don't really know when I'm being ironic, when I'm being sarcastic or when I'm being sincere - and what the difference really is. It sounds like a problem for my psychologist, but they're expensive... It's just easier to write a stand-up show.
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. She will be accompanied by a surprise warm-up act, which (without giving too much away) proves that the stand-up industry is not made up of white, oppressive men, but is actually full of supportive and good colleagues who can recognize talent when they see it and are always willing to back it up and, well, well, warm up for one of the new stars in the Danish stand-up firmament.
Hygge is something Danes know and love, and on his second solo tour, comedian Martin Nørgaard takes a look at Danish hygge. The world may be in turmoil, the poles may be melting and the horsemen of the apocalypse are saddling up, but no one wants to think about that. or care. And so? it's lucky that we live in Denmark - the country that invented coziness! That is? if we ask ourselves. And we do. All the time. On his second solo tour, Martin Nørgaard invites you inside for a thoroughly cozy evening where you can hang your worries in the closet and close your eyes and ears to the outside world while you let Martin “Hyggefar” Nørgaard pull a warm blanket over your tired legs and serve a round of verbal chocolate milk with whipped cream.
The Danes are raging! The headlines often sound like that, and everyone gets angry - but perhaps especially Mikkel Rask. A terrific standup show about things that annoy us.
A comedy show about fathers and rotten apples. Mikkel Rask is known as one of the sharpest comedians in the business. He has won the title of Danish stand-up champion and has been nominated for the ZULU Comedy Galla Talent Award. He has shone at Comedy Aid for several years, and now he's finally stepping out in his first one-man show. Mikkel says: "My first show will introduce me both as a comedian and a person. That's why I'll be sharing very personal material such as my father's death and thoughts about becoming a father myself, but in classic stand-up style with lots of jokes." They say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, but Mikkel Rask feels like an apple that has fallen quite far from his father... and is possibly rotting. If you have a father, or have had, or know someone who has passed someone who looks like a father on the street... then this is the show for you!
This year's Grin til Gavn (Grin for Good) is held at Aarhus Musikhus on December 27 and at Bremen Teater in Copenhagen on December 29. This year's hosts are Mikkel Klint Thorius and Jonas Mogensen!
