Ask any question

Our funny servants are getting all kinds of questions, when the serve at the tables. You can actually talk to them during the performance, and they will answer you in character.

The comedy runs for about an hour during:

– a reception or open house

– the welcome drink 

– or as most often – during the dinner itself.

"The show was fantastic
and had the entire audience in stitches.

Their improv was amazing,

All kinds of parties

We serve and entertain at any party or event. 

If you call the us, we will tell you how the comedy waiters will fit into your event.

We improvise with the dinner guests while serving drinks around the tables, by simply make fun with the guests or for example sing a song etc.

But several times during the show we entertain everybody in the room simultaneously all together. 

No matter where it is;
in the garden, at the restaurant, on a boat or in a castle

– we organize the fun comedy waiters’ entrance in advance with the toastmaster, the local waiters and the kitchen staff.

The show takes place while your guests are dining, drinking and talking amongst each other, so it integrates perfectly with any timeframe
