Stand-up comedian Piv Huvluv behoort samen met Raf Coppens, Nigel Williams en Bert Kruismans tot de pioniers van de stand-up in Vlaanderen die 15 jaar geleden gezamenlijk op tournee gingen als het ‘Bonjour Micro-collectief’, het allereerste Vlaamse stand-up collectief. In geen tijd bouwt Piv Huvluv, dankzij een heel eigen authentieke en onnavolgbare stijl, een stevige live-reputatie op. Niet in het minst door zijn enorm improvisatievermogen en de grote herkenbaarheid, met zijn vinylplaten steevast in de aanslag. Piv is overigens de enige Vlaamse comedian die in alle 7 reeksen van Comedy Casino (Canvas) te zien was.

Steven Mahieu is één van de grote opkomende talenten binnen het Vlaamse comedylandschap. Deze curieuze spichtige verschijning, scherp als een scheermes, vindt een fragiel evenwicht tussen grove en fijnzinnige humor en schuwt de maatschappijkritiek niet.

Does anybody love anybody anyway? So asked insane Welsh poet philosopher Howard Jones in 1983. Finally someone dares to answer. Having sorted out religion (Christ on a Bike), politics (Hitler Moustache) and penises (Talking Cock), the star of the award winning podcast As it Occurs to Me and Radio 4’s Richard Herring’s Objective seeks to define and destroy love. Before love destroys him. Again. Does Richard’s dry-cleaner genuinely love him? How could a romantic gesture involving Ferrero Rochers get dangerously out of control?
