Carly Blair is a not-your-typical-American American who's been trying to shove her square peg-shaped self into Amsterdam's round hole with admirable, or perhaps foolish, persistence for the last ten or so years. When she's not embarrassing her parents and menagerie of ex-lovers with her comedy, she works as a freelance writer for corporate clients and exercises frenetically so as to minimize the chance of having a double chin in her gig photos.

Aleksandr Pereverzev
Originally from Georgia, already doing standup for 3 years in Switzerland, Georgia, Russia, Germany and now in the Netherlands. I also was an invited co-median for a BBC arts hour on tour live podcast.

Sarath is the best Indian comedian from Rotterdam. He's also the only Indian come-dian from Rotterdam. He has small hands but God compensated for it with a 7-inch nose. So he's the complete package, if you're into weird packages.

He suffers from an incurable malady called making things more awkward than they should be and is trying to brew some jokes out of his everyday awkward encounters"

Elena Popa
'Mine are clean jokes, I don't swear or talk about sex (on purpose). I like to talk about my own experiences and how I see things, so I would describe it as an observational sort of storytelling. Elena Popa is the winner of the December edition of TUNA! The Tiny Underground Newbie Award was well deserved, winning the jury vote and coming in second with the audience vote.

Hi, I am Juan, an Argentinean living in Haarlem. I am a storytelling enthusiast now doing standup, I have a solid script: "How I do not speak Dutch while I date my Dutch teacher".

Doors open at 7:30pm. Show at 8pm. There will be a 15 min intermission.

People call me different, I think that makes me, me. I’m a local boutique hostel. Somewhere in between a laid-back hostel and a 5-star hotel. My bar is open. Local beers on draft, cocktails and barista coffee with homemade baked goods to-go. Make yourself feel at home.

Online ticket price: €13; €16 at the door. From 7 PM only tickets at the door.
