Stand up comedy in English in Joensuu? Oh yeah, we've got you covered! You're more than welcome to join the English stand up night on the 23rd of September (Wednesday) in Mayhem night club (Koskikatu 5). The first English Stand Up Nights have all gathered hundreds of comedy fans to join the audience and laugh with the comedians. 💃🌟🎤 You don't want to miss this event, as it is the best (and only 😏) comedy club in Joensuu where you get to hear stand up comedy in English language 😅

The English nights are open mic club nights, which means that the comedians build up and practice new jokes or get up on the stage for the first time. The venue is a pub / night club and fits approximately 80 people in the audience. The price to join the show depends on where and when you buy the ticket:

🎫 In advance: 10€ - In advance tickets can be bought in the webshop up until the event day.

🎫 At the door: 13€ - If there are any tickets left, they will be sold at the door for 13€.

Performers of the 23rd of September English stand up comedy night:

MC Tommi Tuominen

Joona Kotilainen This almost 2-meter tall comedian and a nerd brings something new to every gig. It might be statistics, it might be folded papers, a song or a talking robot. You'll never know in advance! He also is the producer of the Comedy Mayhem stand up club, so he's always there even if he wouldn't be on the stage.

Kaisu Nevasalmi Kaisu Nevasalmi is in theory a woman in her prime but mentally she is an ancient soul who is just trying to survive in this day and age. She does not completely understand how the modern world works but at least she keeps wondering about it.

Cosmin Porusniuc Cosmin moved to Joensuu in 2019 for his Master’s studies, and somehow this city and the people here convinced me to stay (at least for a while). His day-to-day work revolves around building cool robots that do cool stuff (and will definitely NOT steal your job in the future.. 😃). In his jokes he is trying to mix his experiences and observations from living as a Romanian in Finland with my work in robotics and other themes like politics and music.

Eppu Tynkkynen is a square peg in a round world where bad luck and trouble seem to follow him everywhere. In his comedy Eppu makes an effort to set aside his negative attitude towards life and instead observe things through a more positive lens. But sometimes he just can't help himself and succumbs to the allure of an intense cynicism."
