Drie professionele comedians – onder wie Patrick Meijer en host Jeroen Pater – nemen plaats op het podium. Eén voor één stappen moedige beginnende-comedians het licht in. Ze krijgen exact één minuut om hun allerbeste grap te brengen.

In deze grensverleggende performance botsen ritme en grap, timing en toon, gevoel en gekte. Niets ligt vast, alles ontstaat ter plekke. Comedians en muzikanten weten van tevoren niet hoe het zal lopen. Ze moeten terugvallen op hun ervaring, hun techniek – en vooral: hun vermogen om los te laten.

The talented comedians who survived the semi finals will compete in the final. A jury of professionals in the circuit decides who wins the jury award and the audience votes for the winner of the audience award.
