Topics include the ongoing presidential campaign, the possibility of a black president, George W. Bush, gas prices, low-paid jobs, ringtones and bottled water, sex, relationships and the correct use of the n-word

Filmed at the Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix, AZ on February 15th and 16th, 2013, Oh My God is Louis C.K.'s fifth stand-up special, his first for HBO since 2007's Shameless, and his first since winning a Emmy Award for writing on his acclaimed show on FX, Louie. Performed in the round in front of a live audience, he discusses such topics as the food chain, animals, divorce, strange anecdotes, broken morality, murder and mortality.

One of America's fastest-rising comedians, Bill Burr wields his razor-sharp wit with rare skill.

A keenly observant social commentator, Bill Burr is also one of the funniest voices in comedy today.

Gabriel Iglesias is one of the fastest-rising comics today!

And of course everything that lands on the shelf ‘The heated polo match between the sexes’.

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.

Mere end 100 min stand-up hvor en veloplagt Uffe Holm reflekterer over udviklingen de sidste 30 år. Uffe er ikke blevet en bitter gammel mand - han synes måske bare at det er lidt fejt, at der ikke var en eneste pige i klassen der var glatbarberet i 91. Vil du se en af Danmarks bedste komikere skyde med skarpt fra sit nostalgiske hjørne, så står du med den helt rigtige dvd i hånden.

Simon has been a fixture in the Aarhus stand-up scene for the past 10 years. After a sea of club shows and warm-up gigs around the country, he is now finally ready with his first solo show. In the show, he invites you on an entertaining journey through sharp observations and awkward everyday situations. You are guaranteed a great show with carefully selected highlights from his back catalog - with his characteristic Jutlandic charm.

Shut up, there are a lot of things tumbling around in the head of someone from Northern Jutland, who grew up in a small town where the nineties were a thing a few years after they had kind of let go of the rest of Denmark. 38 full and half educations and careers attempted to get started have drawn Anne Bakland from Østervrå across the country and to Copenhagen, where she landed with her feet firmly planted on the stand-up stage with a microphone in hand and a bag full of both questions and answers about all the bullshit of life.

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.

The latest stand-up from Denmark's biggest comedian. "Anden paa coke?" toured the country in 2006 and was seen live by over 100,000 people. Anden takes the stand-up comedy genre to a level never before seen in Denmark. There are backdrops, there is scenography, there is multimedia, but at its core, it is still just stand-up comedy at its very best!

Perfection, excess and other bullshit words is my third one-man show. It took over three years to write and edit, and I hope it shines through when you're sitting at home on your couch watching it.

Denmark's most ruthless comedian, now in his own show with his verdict on the Danish people.

With his boyish charm and incredible energy – famous for always being quick on the draw and sharp with his comebacks, he is not afraid to touch on topics that border on the forbidden. You can look forward to a show in top gear when Uffe tackles topics such as the difference between men and women, sex patches, service in Denmark, men's way of dancing, and party games!

”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!

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.

Niels Hausgaard's show at Vega, from his 2006 tour "Vildskab" (Wildness).

There are more than two hours of classic stand-up when ANDEN BRINGER OUT is just Anders, a stool and a microphone.

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.

'Levemand' will be a reunion with the playful satirical comedy style that has made Dybvad one of the country's most popular comedians.

It's hard not to prick up your ears when Linda P shares her life story. She has been a slut, tried to distinguish between Linda Petersen and Linda P, suffered from headaches, and given up her wild lifestyle to become "normal" and a so-called "model citizen." BUT... is it really that easy to stay on track and live a quiet life without causing trouble? Has Linda been able to avoid messing up her closest relationships? And what about love? Is it even possible to be in a relationship when you are born a wild child? Look forward to Linda P's fifth one-woman show, where she once again shares herself and her frustrations about her ingrained "fuck-up gene."
