 Boom
Chicago is an Amsterdam institution.
For twelve years, we've mixed good writing,
quick thinking and high production values
to create sharp, funny shows. We tour the
country -- and the world – to perform
over 600 times a year, including 150 original
corporate shows.
Most people see us in Amsterdam at the
300-seat Leidseplein Theater, where we
perform almost every night. The audience
is seated around tables, and people eat
and drink as well. Our kitchen changes
menu items with the seasons, and we serve
great drinks and shaken cocktails

Amsterdam's oldest coffee shop
has gradually turned into a genuine chain
of soft-drug selling tourist hangouts, including
a full range of Bulldog souvenirs. This
one on the Leidseplein is definitely the
biggest and the loudest of them all. Ironically
this building once was a police station!
Though the interior frequently changes the
main theme seems to be Caribbean. Loud music
and videos - what else would you expect |
