Jakob Kerkhove: London Is Great • Stand Up Comedy • BCN Fringe • EN
“London is great” is Jakob’s second one-man show portraying the story of a complete idiot moving to a post-Brexit London to find a better life. The show, while full of laughter and storytelling, sketches a journey through the highs and lows of life in one of the world’s most iconic cities: London. “London is Great” takes you deep into the heart of the capital through the eyes of someone who thought escaping Spanish tapas was the hardest part—until he realized the hard reality of being an immigrant and employment-based visas.
Jakob Kerkhove started doing comedy in Barcelona right before the pandemic hit. Once covid started to give up its attempts to conquer the world, Jakob started to be more and more perceived as a writer, storyteller, and amateur comedian. At the beginning of 2024, he kicked in a door at a bar in Eixample and started the now reputable open mic show “Jokes & Beers”. During the summer of 2024, he performed his first one-man show titled “Act Normal” at the Edinburgh Fringe (the world’s largest arts festival). The show received great reviews and now he’s back with a brand new story for you to enjoy.
It will be performed on Sunday November 3rd, 12 p.m. at the upstairs area of the comedy clubhouse. We’re not charging for tickets, but you are allowed to tip at the end of the show.
Sunday 3rd November @ 12:00 – The Comedy Clubhouse Cafe (Upstairs)
