The F-Word Line-Up:
Host: Skye aka Kym Nelson @kym_comedyplayground (UK)
Kym is a character comedian hailed by a theatre critic as "a great and relatable storyteller." She has written and performed two acclaimed solo shows, appears regularly at comedy clubs and festivals-including the Edinburgh Fringe, and teaches comedy across the UK and Belgium. Her work also extends beyond the stage, helping professionals bring humour, confidence, and connection into the workplace.
Our line-up includes two headliners!
Headliner: Laura Lopez (Spanish)
Laura is a trilingual comedian who performs in English, Spanish, and Russian with unmatched energy. Some of her comedic career highlights: includes being a finalist in the first Prague's Funniest Comedian Competition, winning a Ukrainian comedy TV show created by President Volodymyr Zelensky, securing the grand prize, and being the only comedian to have performed in the US Embassy in the Czech Republic. Laura's comedic conquests span across Europe and beyond!
Headliner: Carly Blair (US)
Carly is a sharp, brainy, and unapologetically bawdy comic turning her outsider experience into razor-edged laughs. A not-your-typical American, she's spent 15 years stubbornly (and hilariously) wedging her square-peg self into Amsterdam life-mining every misfit moment for comedy gold. Her material is smart, personal, and fearless-spanning culture clashes, identity, and the absurdities of everyday life, all delivered with biting wit and disarming honesty. A regular on stages across Europe, the UK, and the US, Carly also runs a weekly comedy show in Amsterdam. She's performed in over a dozen countries and was long-listed for the 2023 Funny Women competition.
Ceren Tosun (Turkish)
Ceren is a Turkish comic and one of Luxembourg’s rising stars, chronicling the chaos of singlehood in her thirties, where her relationship status refreshes every 24 to 48 hours. Her comedy dives into expat struggles, working life, and the absurdities of trying to settle down abroad. A former alcoholic who traded bottles for marathons, she brings a dark, cynical edge to the stage that’s as strong as a double espresso.
Irish Costrop (Belgium)
Iris a.k.a. "Flanders’ funniest IT consultant" (not their words) started doing comedy in April 2022 and has been enjoying entertaining audiences with their stories since then. Whether it's about a car crash or lesbian myths, Iris takes you with them on a road trip in their mind.
