About the Performers
Meet the people who make the room come alive with laughter and energy.
Rachel Morton-Young
Rachel is an energetic and chatty British comedian, based in Utrecht, the Netherlands. She is an established act on the English-speaking comedy circuit and the owner of Mad Cow Comedy. Rachel organises and hosts the International Comedy Showcase in Utrecht and Bonobo’s Comedy Night in the Hague, as well as hosting shows and performing frequently at comedy clubs throughout the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium.
Jens Rabiega
Jens Rabiega is the funniest German/South African this far north of the Kalahari. He is a regular on the Dutch scene performing across The Netherlands and has performed at Comic Strip in NYC, London, Edinburgh Fringe, Lithuania, Belgium and in his native South Africa to name a few. Recounting stories of what it was like growing up in a German household in South Africa, being married to a French woman and becoming a father, he walks a fine line between hilarious and offensively hilarious.
Bianca
Bianca Lala is a Prague-based stand-up comedian, producer, and writer who turns life’s absurdities into painfully relatable jokes.
She produces weekly stand-up shows that cover everything from light-hearted topics like dating and sex to darker humor that finds laughs in life’s tragedies 💀🔥
❗️Not only that, but she is proud to say she has performed in various sketchy places around Europe! And unfortunately survived...
📺 She has also recently performed on national television in her home country, Romania (by far, the sketchiest).
🎭 As the co-founder of Unhinged Theatre, she’s often behind the scenes, writing scripts and crafting plot lines to keep the chaos delightfully entertaining.
Caroline
Originally from Canada, Caroline has lived in the Netherlands since 2011 and been doing stand-up since 2023. Her total failure to make friends and integrate into Dutch society has been an asset on stage, and she was the first-ever winner of the Tiny Underground Newbie Award (TUNA) in October 2023. She was recently named as one of That Comedy Thing's 'Ones to Watch 2024', and was also a semi-finalist in the 2023 English Talent Award run by the Utrecht Comedy Festival. An avid student of Dutch culture, Caroline has been banned from every spa in the Randstad.
