Comedy Legende Emo Philips naar Club Haug!

De iconische comedian Emo Philips komt eindelijk naar Europa, en daarbij mag een optreden in Club Haug natuurlijk niet ontbreken. Op 8 december zal deze legende het podium van de Rotterdamse comedyclub betreden. Talkshowhost Jay Leno noemde Emo Philips al ‘the best joke writer in America’. Daarnaast ston Philips stond al jarenlang hoog op het verlanglijstje van Marcel Haug, de eigenaar van Club Haug. “Emo Philips is een levende legende, een ware kunstenaar,” aldus Marcel.
Met zijn unieke verschijning en even unieke stage presence is Emo een comedian die je voor altijd bijblijft. In Amerika verwierf hij al grote bekendheid met talloze optredens in populaire late night shows. Bovendien tourde hij samen met ‘Weird Al’ Yankovic, wat onder andere leidde tot een staande ovatie in Carnegie Hall.

Described by Jay Leno as "the best joke writer in America" and by Gary Delaney as the best joke writer in the world, Emo Philips has performed over seven thousand stand-up shows in comedy clubs, colleges and theaters, including a multi-week run at the Playhouse Theatre in London's West End. In 2018 and from 2022-2023, Emo toured with "Weird Al" Yankovic (over two hundred concerts across three continents); Emo will forever remember the standing ovation he received at Carnegie Hall.
"I'm not sure when or where I first heard of Emo's routines, but once I did I instantly became a fan," says "Weird Al" Yankovic. "Emo had the iconic look of someone who could have been a major star in the era of silent films. His body language was indescribably weird. And his material was flat-out brilliant." If asked at gunpoint who the funniest guy in the world was, Yankovic adds, "Without question I would have to say Emo Philips -- especially if Emo happened to be the one holding the gun."
--- "Weird Al" Yankovic, Chicago Magazine
