New Order
Meet four of the rising stars of European stand-up.
Overview
This year's Melbourne International Comedy Festival New Order stream features young comedic talent from the UK and Europe. This four-person bill will feature Adam Hess, Larry Dean and Lou Sanders, but it's Danish stand-up, blogger and podcaster Sofie Hagen that we're most interested in. She's been rising rapidly up the comedic ranks — and for damn good reason. Tackling taboo topics with understated wit and charm, her act covers everything from body issues, mental health and feminism, to her own fanatical obsession with Irish boy band Westlife.
