1001 Normal Dysfunctional Families

Welcome to the stand-up comedy game show where comedians will battle against each other using their childhood trauma. You, the audience, will decided which comedian had the worst parents.

The game is structured in 3 rounds:

Round 1

Each comedian will do a 5 minute stand-up set about their family and childhood misadventures so be prepared to witness stories from all around the world, ranging from failing a medical exam in India to being beaten with a baguette in France.

Round 2

There will be prepared scenarios containing "a location" and "a subject" and our comedians will have to improvise a "family fight(argue)" scene based on the notes. The battles will be 1v1 and you will decide who goes in the last round

Round 3

The comedians will play an "Excuses Battle ". There will be prepared scenarios such as "Why didn't you took the trash out ? ", "Why you listen so much to Ariana Grande ?" and the comedians will have to come up with the most creative excuses.

Join us for a magical night where we will laugh about our childhood traumas and if you are brave enough, bring your family with you.
