Two of Norway’s most popular comedians have joined forces with one goal in mind: to give you a really funny show! And THAT’S exactly what we need when the world is going more and more off the rails.
"Tall and Dark" is a show packed with stand-up comedy, music, and parodies, and we can promise you’ll be in stitches when John and Terje tackle topics like tall, dark, power-hungry leaders, emergency preparedness, generational conflicts, and the fear of suddenly becoming the oldest member of the family.
Why would anyone want to change the world after turning 75? Was life less complicated in the ’80s and ’90s? And can you fake your way through most of life? Terje and John tackle some of life’s big and important questions—but also things you didn’t know you needed answers to.
Get ready for an evening packed with lots of laughter and a great atmosphere!
