Funny Vidi Vici Presents: Fresh Takes
Six of Amsterdam’s funniest up-and-coming comedians take the stage with their best material, plus a few bold, brand-new jokes never heard before.
Hosted by Rami Nima, Fresh Takes is a curated comedy night for people who like sharp jokes, strange thoughts, and comedians you’ll want to say you saw early.
Join us at Droog in Amsterdam on 29 September 2026.
Bianca:
Dry, observational stand-up from an introvert who has already overthought this bio. Bianca started comedy in September 2025 and was a 2025 TUNA Newbie of the Year finalist. She did not win. You may have gathered that from the word “finalist.”
Isa:
Born by the Caspian Sea, named wrongly, and Amsterdam-based. Isa tries to make sense of philosophy, religion, and everyday absurdity through satire and awkward humor.
Lennard:
“No matter your age, it’s never too late to give up on your dreams.”
At age 43, Lennard finally gave up his life’s mission of being one of the cool kids and switched to comedy instead.
He now spends his days writing jokes. Please don’t tell his boss.
He now spends his days writing jokes. Please don’t tell his boss.
Lennard has yet to win any awards, or recognition, or respect, or dignity, but he firmly believes you can achieve anything if you just put your mind to it. Case in point: he did a push-up once.
Thomas:
Thomas recently started getting up on stages. Sometimes he’s a storyteller, other times a poet, today he’s a comedian. They say he’s unapologetically gay. That’s not true. He apologises in advance.
Valerie:
Valerie Tan is a very young (24 years) and very new (5 months) comedian from Amsterdam. They are trying to become their best self and apparently that includes taking life changing medication, forgiving, and telling jokes. They are happy just to be included 🙂
Alice:
Originally from France, Alice Raffegeau jokes that she’s a rare breed (or bread?): a French person who speaks English.
Her comedy is witty and observational, with a fun, chatty style and infectious energy on stage.
