No Die! From Amsterdam to an African Misadventure, Fedor Ikelaar

After performing in 50 countries, Dutch stand-up comedian Fedor Ikelaar shares the story that nearly ended it. What starts as a naive trip to Sierra Leone spirals into motorbike chaos, a car crash, and a gunpoint encounter that isn’t even his closest brush with death. Blending sharp stand-up with vivid storytelling, No Die! is a darkly funny true story about bad decisions, blind confidence, and somehow surviving it all. Having performed across Europe and Canada, Fedor has built a reputation for smart, globally informed comedy that mixes high-energy stand-up with deeply personal stories. No Die! turns real-life misadventures into big laughs while exploring risk, culture shock, and the strange kindness of strangers. “Worldly, sharp, and endlessly funny—Fedor spins insane stories from around the globe with impeccable timing.” — AYTC Review Credits Created by – Fedor Ikelaar About the Artist Fedor Ikelaar is an international stand-up comedian whose comedy is shaped by life across cultures.
