Aaaaahhh!! September a moment of new beginnings, time to reflect, recharged and more guapisimo after the Summer beachy happy times. While this writers tan has suffered not having seen a beach in weeks we are showing some serious results for our summer toil and am super excited to be opening the 6th Festival internacional de Comedia de Barcelona (now practically España) this month.

FUNNIEST FICER COMPETITION LATEST: Madrid - The distraction of summer has made life difficult in Madrid and the amount of participants is less than expected and ultimately not enough for the process as we saw fit. We have decided to go straight to a final on September 29 and turn the scheduled ‘heats’ in Rastro Bar (tonight Sept 12!!) and the Irish Rover (Sept 19) into Open Mic nights with a Wild card entry to the final available should anyone shine and wish to take part. So not as planned but it is something of a work in progress and we are blaming the proximity to the Spanish August, so lessons learned. In the meantime the Madrid amateur comedian standard has been set by the lovely Ana Bottles and should no one produce better we may ask her to represent in Barcelona so your Madrid Needs You!!
Barcelona with the benefit of last year’s experience is raring to go and if anything it looks like we may have to add a heat there. We are certain that people are stalling before applying but we are getting close to filling the 3 heats already. So if you have a preferred date then it might be time to get on it!!
