Four Weeks
The Grapevine picks the events, places and things to check out in the next five weeks.
Stand-up comedy in English
Every Monday, a group of comedians called the
GoldenGang get together and perform a comedy
set in English for expats and locals alike. Then on
Wednesdays there are improv nights, and a story
night at the end of the month—admission is free!

Comedy
66°N Goes Down Under
Icelandic comic and cartoonist Hugleikur
Dagsson has teamed up with Aussie ex-pat
Jono Duffy to put together this recurring
comedy event. Their comedy, as they promise, is
like themselves: the former "filthy and friendly,"
the latter "gay, Australian, and a bit desperate."
Obscenities and musical numbers are certain.
Food and drink are on offer. All jokes in the
lowest common linguistic denominator—English,
that is. Bring your own guffaws. EP

will be in English.
