Sweet Home Amsterdama
The new Boom Chicago comedy show about finding a home (good luck with that)
In a world full of greedy landlords, 9m2 studios, and “co-living spaces” that are just adult bunk beds, the search for a home has become the ultimate blood sport. Whether you’re in a major city or a small town, the housing crisis isn’t letting anyone off easy.
Boom Chicago (Amsterdam’s premier comedy club) turns the chaos of modern life into a fast-paced, half-sketch, half-improvised comedy show. Starting with the nightmare that is the housing market, the cast spirals into everything that comes with it: side hustles, €2 tikkies, endless construction, burnout, and the questionable choices we make just to survive.
Your suggestions shape the show, guiding our cast through life’s milestones, setbacks, and absurd detours. No two nights are the same, but one thing is certain: the system may be broken, but at least we can laugh about it.
And remember, there’s no place like home… even if you can’t afford the deposit.
Our world-class comedy improvisers turn your crazy ideas into a sizzling show. They create totally new scenes, characters and even songs on the spot. It’s absolutely amazing!
Boom Chicago launched the careers of Seth Meyers, Jordan Peele, and stars of Ted Lasso (Jason Sudeikis, Brendan Hunt and Joe Kelly). Best of all, the next generation is on stage tonight!
The best Boom Chicago cast in years improvises a hysterical comedy show based on true, funny stories. They take these stories and turn into rich characters, sharp scenes and hysterical songs right before your eyes!
The team also includes an improvising technician and a wonderful live musician. You won’t believe it’s improvised! This is long-form improv at its finest!
Our New Thursday Night Shot of Improv is an unfiltered, high-energy, comedy show where the audience drives the madness! Bring your wildest ideas. Great suggestions earn free shots!
Party starts at 21:00 with a Happy 45 Mins: Half price beer, wine, and GiG hard seltzers!
