Halil Caliskan: Homesick on Tour – English Stand-Up Comedy in Amsterdam | December 4

Language: English |  Duration: 75 minutes | Format: Stand-up Comedy
Doors and pop-up cocktail bar open from 7pm, show starts at 8pm.

After his successful debut run at the Edinburgh Fringe and freshly back from the Barcelona Fringe, Halil brings the final version of his solo show Homesick back to his home city, Amsterdam.

Halil Caliskan’s debut hour, Homesick, is a raw and unapologetic exploration of life abroad, blending sharp observations, witty stories and dark political satire. As a rising Turkish talent in the English comedy scene, Halil tackles identity crises, Amsterdam’s infamous coffee shop culture, encounters with Dutch gurus during psychedelic retreats and everything in between. His deadpan humour and fearless delivery take the audience on a thought-provoking journey through the highs and lows of his experience, offering a bold, captivating yet funny take on what it means to be far from home.

Le Flaneur Bookshop—on the scenic canals of Prinsengracht—is one of Amsterdam’s emerging intimate venues for stand-up, music, and alternative live events. A cocktail bar will be open one hour before the show, run by one of the city’s most talented bartenders.

The show is for ages 18+. No video recording during the performance; photos are allowed.
