Victor Patrascan is a Romanian stand-up comedian and social commentator - and quite possibly the only comedian in the world who's permanently on tourWithout a home base, Victor has spent the past 5 years performing his self-produced shows across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East

Victor began his comedy journey in London in 2012, where he honed his sharp, self-aware style - and went on to top the Roast Battle London rankings 2 years in a rowIn 2020, he left the UK scene behind and took his comedy international - performing in a new city almost every night, building a dedicated international audience one show at a time

In 2024 alone, Victor performed 298 self-produced shows in 114 cities across 2 continents, for over 35,000 peopleRecently, he began sharing clips of his audience interactions online which have gained him international recognition

Victor might be on the longest, most extensive self-produced comedy tour in historyHe's also the first comedian to bring English-language stand-up to places like Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Liechtenstein or remote fishing villages in Iceland

Over the years, Victor has told his jokes in: JP DE IT LB UZ NL GR AT SG TR JO SE FR RS CH GE FI BE AZ IS UA AL MT ES EE CY IE RO MY KR LI KG BA PT XK GI KZ CZ HK NO SK TH GB SI AM HR PL LV MK LT LU AE DK MD VN HU and even BG

What makes these shows even more special? Victor is 100% independent - no agents, no sponsors, no industry involvement - he produces, promotes, and performs every single show himselfThanks to the audiences who keep showing up at his shows, he doesn't have to compromise on what he jokes about

Victor's stand-up is grounded in his lived experience as a comedy vagabond - exploring the quirks, contradictions and clichés of every place he visitsWith a rebellious attitude, he transforms human tensions into some of the most original stand-up you'll see today

He pokes fun at cultural differences and national absurdities, but always with empathyHis comedy reminds us that while we might look, speak or pray differently - we're all ridiculous in the same beautifully human way
