Pau Pathare is a mixed bag of nationalities and humour. They joke about their Indian-Polish family life, being queer, mental health and world history. One day, they will become pope. From silly to interesting to darker themes, Pau will take you by the hand and make sure you enjoy the wild ride through their thoughts.
Fairis Osman is a Malaysian who has been living in Switzerland since 2005. A shy kid who was often laughed at, he eventually decided to lean into it and started performing stand-up in Basel in 2019. Blending cultural observations with self-deprecating humor, Fairis is on a mission to change the world—one joke at a time.
The show will be hosted by club comedian Albert Louw
