About this Event
Halil Caliskan’s debut hour, Homesick, is a raw and unapologetic exploration of life abroad, blending sharp observations, witty stories and dark political satire. As a rising Turkish talent in the English comedy scene, Halil tackles identity crises, Amsterdam’s infamous coffeeshop culture, encounters with Dutch gurus during psychedelic retreats and everything in between. His deadpan humour and fearless delivery take the audience on a thought-provoking journey through the highs and lows of his experience, offering a bold, captivating yet funny take on what it means to be far from home. Halil brings a clown's sensitivity to his show: playful, unpredictable, and emotionally exposed.
“Halil is hilarious and stupid and good and trying. I love this guy.” — Lara Ricote
“Halil’s stand-up is singularly playful, deadpan and imaginative in a way that consistently delights audiences and he brings an extremely unique point of view and sensibility to his work and is hilarious, razor-sharp, and not to be missed!” — Derek Mitchell, Double Dutch
“I find Halil very funny... If you don’t, then we have different tastes.” — Phil Burgers
