Rachel Morton-Young MC

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.
Jeroen Leenders
You most likely never heard of standup comedian Jeroen Leenders although he is not a stranger to the English scene. He won several prestigious prizes in Belgium and the Netherlands in Dutch. Known for his improvising talent and notorious for the topics he selects. To him humor is a social tool to express unsettling feelings and ideas in order to talk about the things we fear and worry about the most. A philosophical wildman, always respectful and inclusive, an anarchist who brings a message of unity.

To be announced soon.
Andréa van der Meel
Born in New Zealand and armed with a Dutch last name she can barely pronounce, Andréa is living proof that heritage doesn’t automatically equal integration.
She’s also a little deaf, which makes every performance an adventure - so laugh from the belly, at full volume, and bonus points if you add subtitles.
Andréa was nominated for a Best Social Media NL Award after her viral Duolingo video, which shared a hilarious take on learning Dutch with a side of Dutch directness.
On stage, she delivers sharp observations, chaotic storytelling, and jack-in-the-box energy you won’t want to miss.
Manuel Wolff (intl) Headliner
Manuel Wolff is a seasoned and sought-after performer who has been making audiences laugh across Germany for years. Whether as a sharp stand-up comedian in clubs or a musical satirist on stage, he’s played all the major venues, toured with three solo shows, and earned numerous cabaret and comedy awards along the way.
His style is spontaneous, unpredictable, yet masterfully timed — a true original in the comedy world. Bursting with ideas, Manuel blends razor-sharp observations with quickfire shifts from deep irony to childlike joy, from absurd silliness to profound reflection. The result? Entertainment that’s truly one-of-a-kind.
Manuel is also an accomplished international performer, with appearances in the UK, USA, Australia, Belgium, the Netherlands, France, and Bulgaria.
As the regular MC of his acclaimed BOING! Comedy Club, as well as the host of various shows, events, and galas, Manuel brings charm, wit, and an unwavering commitment to keeping things entertaining — no matter what comes his way.
