New Program - Persona Non Grata

"New Program - Persona Non Grata" is a stand-up comedy show taking place on December 19, 2026 at 6:00 PM at Pub 103,8 FM in Kraków. The comedian describes their own program. The performer begins with a theory that stand-up comedy allows audiences to experience an intimate and spontaneous conversation with a madman. They distinguish between two English terms: comic and comedian. A comic observes the world, filters it through one of 20 joke-writing methods, and makes people laugh. Their jokes could be told by another comic with similar effect. A comedian makes audiences feel they know the person on stage. They deliver their material in a unique way, and their description of the surrounding world is naturally funny. Such material often wouldn't work in another stand-up's performance. A comedian needs time to "find their voice." For much of the show, the comedian sits down. This allows them to speak to the audience as if having a conversation with friends. They emphasize being well-prepared while remaining authentic. Together with the audience, they laugh at two things: the absurdity of the real world rather than absurdity created by comedy mechanics, and their own comically failed attempts at dealing with this world. The program contains almost no "parental humor." The comedian looks at the world more from a child's perspective. The word "szambundinks" appears in the description as a term used for their son when he starts to "go crazy." The author doesn't know where it came from. Practical information: the show is intended for viewers aged 16 and over. Audience members who disrupt the performance may be asked to leave without a ticket refund. Audio and video recording is prohibited.
