The show Amsterdam Abortion Survivor by Dutch stand-up comedian Micha Wertheim has been selected for the best of Fringe NYC Encore Series.
He distinguished himself with his funny, adorable accent, strolling through political correctness during the Fringe Festival, and got the honour of being booked for the Encore Series.
‘My native language is Dutch, not Deutsch’
In the show Wertheim explains the difference between Germany and the Netherlands like this: “Holland is tulips, windmills and cheese. Germany is beer, sausage and genocide. I am not saying one is necessarily better than the other. I am only saying that they are different cultures.”
‘Gloriously controversial’
Wertheim discusses things you cannot say in Holland or in the U.S.: wheelchair people, Foster Parents and abortion of course pass along in a fierce and hilarious monologue.

Micha Wertheim at the Soho Play House, 10 – 19 September.
