Caribbean Combo: Ze ZIJN er weer!

Pieter Verelst: Mijn Broer en Ik

In his first comedy special the Flemish comedian Pieter Verelst tells a bizarre story about his childhood, which he spent with his brother (existing or not) in a boring village in Flanders. Together they tackle this dullness and use it as a source of inspiration for a strange creativity.

Urbanus: Meer Moet Dat Niet Zijn

Zijn humoristische stijl kan omschreven worden als absurd, volks, subversief, anarchistisch, kinderlijk, morbide, soms vulgair en populistisch.

Freek de Jonge: De Mythe

From March to June 1983, the Dutch comedian Freek de Jonge performed his fifth solo performance: De mythe ('The myth'). In the programme booklet he included the following quote from Polish-British anthropologist Bronislaw Malinowski: 'Myth as it exists in a savage community, that is in its living primitive form, is not merely a story told but a reality lived.'

Don Quishocking: We Are Utterly Confused

In the last theater show (1981) of the Dutch cabaret company Don Quishocking, the internal dispute is central. When George Groot returns from Pune, it appears that he has joined the Bhagwan movement. All group members deal with it in their own way, but it seems inevitable that the group members have grown apart.

Jochen Otten: Troosten

Stage registration of the seventh comedy special 'Troosten' by the Dutch comedian Jochen Otten. His inability to make his daughter stop crying was the reason for Otten to make this performance about emotions. How can you reach someone's emotions.

Youp van 't Hek: Alles of Nooit

Registration of the theatre program by the Dutch comedian Youp van 't Hek.

Hans Teeuwen: Trui

In his third theatre program the Dutch comedian Hans Teeuwen plays with empty wine bottles, little girls and himself. Poetic, absurd, false and genuine.

Youp van 't Hek: Man vermist

Jan Jaap van der Wal: Onderbewust

André van Duin - Ja Hoor... Daar Is Ie Weer!

Najib Amhali: Alles komt goed

With great pace, jokes and a good dose of self-mockery, the Moroccan comedian tells poignant stories taken from real life.

Theo Maassen: Zonder Pardon

Registration of the sixt theatre program by the Dutch comedian Theo Maassen.

Hans Teeuwen: Spiksplinter

Hard pruning jokes are interspersed with musical interludes, a magic trick and Teeuwen's unique improvisations in the sixth show by the Dutch comedian Hans Teeuwen.

Theo Maassen: Tegen beter weten in

Maassen won two of the biggest comedy contests in the Netherlands in 1990, the Groninger Studenten Cabaret Festival(GSCF), and Cameretten. The GSCF jury was not pleased with the quality of the contestants that year, and gave Maassen the first prize, remarking he was the best of the year, but still not very good. In the following years, however, Maassen fame grew steadily, especially amongst students. Maassens style was based on stand-up comedy: Alone on stage, telling jokes and stories to amuse the public, without any musical support (a thing common for most Dutch comedians up to that point). Since 2000, Maassens shows are shown on Dutch national television, making him more and more a household name.

Ronald Goedemondt: Geen Sprake Van

Stand-up comedian Ronald Goedemondt converts his daily experience as a man in his forties into astute humor about fatherhood and aging.
