INTERNATIONAL COMEDY SHOWCASE Join us for a fun and cosy Sunday afternoon in the heart of Utrecht!
Mad Cow Comedy hosts an afternoon of stand-up comedy performed by various international acts, all performing in English. Utrecht-based comedian, Rachel Morton-Young, introduces a different mix of comedians every 2 weeks, so no two shows are ever the same. Kartoffel:
Our show now takes place in the Biergarten at Kartoffel, a German-themed restaurant along the historic Oudegracht (only a 10 minutes walk from Utrecht Central Station). The venue has great, affordable food, so considering coming early for lunch, or staying for a bite after the show. Lineup 18th May: 🎤 Host: Rachel Morton-Young
British comedian, host and founder of Mad Cow Comedy. She blends dry wit with observations on Dutch life and regularly performs across Europe. Headliner: Manuel Wolff 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. Support Acts: Manuel will be supported by Juanita Coble and other acts TBC UPCOMING DATES 2025:18th May 2025 1st June (SEASON FINALE!)7th September 202521st September 20255th October 202519th October 20252nd November 202516th November 202530th November 202514th December 202511th January 202625th January 20268th February 202622nd February 20268th March 202622nd March 20265th April 202619th April 20263rd May 202617th May 2026 (Season finale!)What Customers Say about Mad Cow Comedy (from Tripadvisor): ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The highlight of my visit to Utrecht!!
