He was born in Kenya and at the age of nineteen was involuntarily enlisted in the military because there was a civil war going on in Somalia. He was just over twenty years old when he came to Sweden, then first to Trelleborg. He studied theatre in Halland and later moved to Helsingborg. There he started a theatre group, Teater 2000, which received Helsingborg's Culture Prize.As a comedian, he has participated in Stockholm Live, and as an actor in the film Wallander – The African. Henrik Elmér (Sweden) - Henrik is one of the original godfathers of stand-up comedy in Sweden, having started already in 1990s, including featuring on the famous TV show 'Släng dig i brunnen' and has been a regular at the renowned Norra Brunn Comedy Club in Stockholm for almost 3 decades. Deliberate and downright funny. Deadpan, deliberate and downright funny - his twisted observations could only come from a man with a compulsion to throw his keys in the river every time he goes over a bridge. He has a feature film called 'The Meaning of Hugo' which enjoyed a well-received international run after its release and was nominated for numerous awards. He also took his first English-language solo show, 'The Sweirdish Mind of Henrik Elmer', to the Edinburgh Fringe. It showcased his absurdism, his surreally logical humour and his gift for quality writing. "Deadpan Swede with masterful timing ... his control was masterful" - Three Weeks "Uses uniquely twisted Nordic logic to produce an off-beat, but very funny, set" - Chortle "Laid back and extremely funny ... cleverly constructed gags" - BBC 7 "The crowd lapped up his humour like a thirsty dog" - BBC Lincolnshire "Speaks far better English than most of his British-born colleagues" - The Guardian BOOK COMEDIANS OR QUIZMASTERS FOR EVENTS/PARTIES! -->You can book 1-3 comedians to perform Stand-up for 25 - 60 minutes.
