Michael Schøt

One minute you're biting your nails at world events, and the next you're laughing in impotence. Michael Schøt has spent most of his stand-up career in the space between these two emotions. His ability to capture the zeitgeist here and now, but playfully observe it from the outside, has thrilled not only audiences, but also critics - who over the years have attached words like “one of the best stand-up comedians in Denmark”, “a comic elemental force”, ‘virtuoso’ and “the absolute sharpest and fastest satirist in the media” to him. Jubelpessimist is a show about an eternal optimist in a gloomy world. A shot of joy, warmth and laughter for the dark times.

One of Denmark's most hyped comedy duos, Martin Johannes Larsen and Rasmus Wallbridge, head up the annual charity show.

Between Christmas and New Year's Eve 2022, it will be 30 years since Danish comedians first took to the stage to raise money for children in vulnerable situations.

Michael Schøt takes his razor-sharp political satire and pointed punchlines out onto the Danish country roads, where he asks the question: Democracy or Demoncracy?

In keeping with tradition, the popular comedy show is back, and this time it is Red Barnet that is behind it. This year's hosts are Michael Schøt and Christian Fuhlendorff.

Some of today's most influential comedians have teamed up to take on the country with a stand-up show that can only be described as a frontal attack on Danish society. Torben Chris, Martin Nørgaard, Morten Wichmann and Michael Schøt have each made satire their specialty, so if you just think everything in Denmark is perfect, you should probably stay away when Rage Against The Mainstream hits a venue near you.

Michael Schøt feels "Unhappily Informed" in new one-man show In his new stand-up show, Michael Schøt shares his despair over the overflow of information we are bombarded with every day. Like his previous shows, "Unhappily Informed" offers intelligent observations about the everyday life we live, translated into sharp and funny punchlines. Now Schøt is ready to give society another satirical twist. Michael himself says about the show: "Ulykkeligt Vidende is really the feeling I'm left with every time I open a newspaper, watch the news, or just go online. Now I know something new... that makes me furious! I think a lot of us feel that way." Look forward to an evening of intelligent comedy from the country's strongest social satirist.
