No biography available.
Highly satirical and personal show about remembering not only to survive but also to live while surviving. Including bizarre detours to everything from sumo wrestling nets, Glyngøre hand sanitizer, press, politics, percentages, privilege blindness and other things with a ‘p’. And of course everything that lands on the shelf ‘The heated polo match between the sexes’.
Danish Comedy one-man show by Jan Gintberg
I "Big Time Paranoia" introducerer Gintberg publikum for et helt nyt begreb - comedy terapi – hvilket var noget, der i den grad fik løsnet lattermusklerne hos publikum og anmelderne, da showet turnerede landet i foråret 2007. Med sin energiske, sarkastiske og selvironiske fremtoning beviser Jan Gintberg, at man i stedet for at søge læge måske kan løse egne problemer blot ved at åbne for lattermusklerne og give los. I løbet af to timer har publikum overgivet sig og forstået budskabet.
“TV is like when male dogs lick their own t*******s - it feels very nice while you're doing it, until you start to wonder what the hell you're actually doing.” Jan Gintberg doesn't hold back when he puts Danes over his knee and humorously highlights all our weaknesses. The stand-up comedian fantasizes about a society where speed and pace are in focus. He mocks the entire nation of whiners who whine because they don't know how to cry. And he kicks the public system that pays for liposuction and facelifts - and those who have surgery in the belief that it will make them happier: “I don't think it's the wrinkles' fault that no one wants to play with you!”
Show from Jan Gintberg's fourth stand-up comedy tour "Den grimme melding" in 2004, this year with assistance from Jonatan Spang.
Get ready to laugh your ass off and roll on the floor as Jan slams culture and the zeitgeist. He deals out blows left and right, not shying away from awarding himself a well-aimed uppercut. The tone may be raw, but it's constantly tempered by his characteristic self-deprecating humor. Experience our everyman Gintberg more honest, more direct and more raw than ever in this top-tuned, high-energy cascade of sharp jokes.
From the circus building in Copenhagen, you can experience Jan Gintberg's 2-hour comedy show LIVE with all of Egypt's Omar Marzouk as a warm-up. In a cascade of provocative observations, jokes and heated verbiage, Jan Gintberg throws himself into the seemingly impossible project of finding a common hope for the human race. This is not a party contribution to the immigrant debate but a long white comedian's look into a world increasingly characterized by hate-filled contradictions.
Freddy saves a dog from its volatile owner and hides him in his room. When Freddy's dad discovers the dog he insists on handing him back to the owner. A terrified Freddy convinces his father they must buy the dog.
Jan Gintberg added the following short statement about the show and the title: "I thought I had made it clear! But someone has obviously misunderstood me! I'm going to save the world. Not fucking save it! Our sun will burn out in 4 billion years and already in 1000 years, physicist Stephen Hawking believes that we can no longer inhabit our planet. The festival toilet is, so to speak, filling up to the brim. But until then, the world deserves one last laugh-out-loud comic insight. To have the outer layers combed and coiffed. To be made nice and presentable before we pull the pin. ‘Gintberg saves the world’... That's what I've always said... so listen up!"
