Feature Acts
Ruben Garcia is a New-York–born Dominican comedian based in Switzerland, trying to blend Caribbean/Bronx energy with Swiss efficiency (with mixed results). He’s been featured on SRF’s 10 vor 10 for his unique way of using humor to navigate life in Switzerland, and profiled in 20 Minuten for bringing English New York stand-up culture to Zurich.
Ted Hooijberg is an odd little man, scientifically known as a short king. Hailing from the Oregon Marion county foster care program, Ted was adopted by two straight people who brought him to Europe to live the high life. Now Ted is committed to not getting committed (again) all while perhaps getting a giggle here and there. He collects giggles like tooth fairies do teeth. He has a little bag for them.
The show will be hosted by club comedian Albert Louw
