The Goods Are Odd

This Alaska to Amsterdam stand up comedy show is for anyone who has rowed a boat or rolled a joint, expat life generally, and those of us who have always felt they didn’t quite belong anywhere.

Having grown up in Alaska, this "fish out of water" tale explores Kendra’s unique upbringing and move abroad 20 years ago. When you’re Alaskan to the core but somehow also Dutch, you can never avoid the question, “Where are you from?” Join her hilarious journey from the wilds of Alaska to the chaos of Amsterdam’s canals, and discover why Alaska is the Perth of America.

Kendra has taken this show to the Women in Comedy Festival in Manchester and the Boom Chicago Festival in Amsterdam, plus toured it across 11 countries in Europe.
