Global Comedy Night Carly Baker, Alan Francis & MC Adam Fields

The Global Comedy Night is an evening stand-up in its purest form. Hilarious, inventive, sometimes a little strange or with a musical twist, but always funny. Because that’s what comedy is all about: the joke! 

The Comedy Night is a relaxed night. Make sure you have your favourite drink within reach when the best comedians hit the stage.

Carly Baker had the honor of beginning her comedy career in 2005 at the famed Houston Laff Stop. From there she has travelled the globe making the funny in Canada, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Ireland, Sweden, Denmark, Austria, & The Netherlands and spent many beloved years on the UK and Scottish comedy circuits. She’s gigged at the Houston Comedy Festival, Edinburgh Fringe Semis So You Think You’re Funny, Glasgow and Merchant City Comedy Festival in the finals of Scottish Comedian of the Year, Cologne International Comedy Festival, Utrecht International Comedy Festival, Luxemburg Comedy Festival, Montreal and New York. She now calls Amsterdam home and is founder of the production company Just Kidding Comedy.
