Stand-Up Comedy Open Mic is a weekly evening of stand-up comedy held at Bartof Café in Frederiksberg, Denmark. Every Tuesday at 20:00, comedians take the small stage to try out brand-new material, so the night is a chance to watch jokes in their earliest form rather than polished ones.
What the evening is like
The setting is raw and intimate. Because the performers are testing work that is still taking shape, the mood tends to be loose and unpredictable, with plenty of improvisation and frequent laughter from the room. Audiences who enjoy seeing comedy being made, rather than delivered, will find this kind of night particularly rewarding.
- A weekly event, held every Tuesday at 20:00
