British stand-up comedian Paul Taylor is coming to Boom Chicago Amsterdam on Wednesday, September 17 as part of his “F*** Me, I’m French!” tour. Ticket sales have started immediately via mojo.nl/paultaylor.

After three sold-out world tours, Taylor will once again bring a sharp and funny take on life as a British expat in France during the “F*** Me, I’m French!” tour. This time he does so 100% in English, having previously achieved success with the bilingual shows #FRANGLAIS, So British (ou presque) and Bisoubye. During this new show, expect an evening of raunchy jokes about language confusion, culture clashes and the idiosyncrasies of both the French and British.

Paul Taylor, who has lived in France since 2009, broke through with his viral online videos and the Canal+ TV show WTF France, in which he humorously filmed French customs. His hilarious observations on the French language and culture have since earned him not only a million-strong audience via YouTube, Instagram and TikTok, but also tightly sold-out theaters around the world.

Comedian Steve Treviño is “America’s Favorite Husband.” He can “speak wife fluently,” he never calls “the guys” for help on a home project, and he knows better than to “make his own decisions,” since decision-making is a privilege reserved solely for his wife, Renae.

His relatable approach affirms his status as one of the country’s premiere stand-up comedians, viewed over 300 million times, selling-out shows across the nation, and amassing over 3.4 million total social media followers.

In 2020, he and his wife, Renae, unveiled a joint weekly podcast entitled “Steve Treviño and Captain Evil.” On the podcast, the couple navigates the treacherous topics of relationships, family, and stand-up comedy. All while trying to stay married. Since launching, the podcast has generated over 1.5 million streams.

She’s enjoyed back-to-back sell-out runs at the Edinburgh Fringe with Wine Tamer and The Prosecco Express, both of which toured Ireland to packed houses. She also took to the stage at Dublin’s iconic 3Arena, sharing the spotlight with comedy heavyweights John Bishop, Michael McIntyre, and Dara Ó Briain.

Her critically acclaimed documentary, Baby Hater, which she created, wrote, and presented, was sold to 12 countries. Meanwhile, her first one-woman show, Bite Me—a brutally honest and darkly funny exploration of eating disorders—earned multiple award nominations at the Dublin Fringe Festival, including Best Performer, Best Production, and the First Fortnight Award. When she took Bite Me to the Vault Festival in 2019, The Guardian’s Lyn Gardner praised her as “hilarious and brutal.”

SOFÍA NIÑO DE RIVERA LIVE AT BOOM CHICAGO

La Ruina is a show in which both attendees and special guests share in public their most embarrassing anecdote: that time their partner left them by whatsapp, when they fell asleep in an important meeting, a misunderstanding with a cab driver… The typical anecdote that friends always ask you to tell at dinner parties.
In La Ruina we laugh, yes, but somehow we also do group therapy to see that we all have a loser inside us.
