A Dutch tourist board warned three Americans that opening an English-language improv comedy club in Amsterdam was a bad idea. In a letter, they were essentially told: “This won’t work here. Don’t do it here…. The Dutch don’t want to see a show in English, the tourists don’t want to see a show at all.” “Andrew reads the letter and goes, ‘Yeah, based on this, I feel like we should definitely do it,’” recalls Pep Rosenfeld, one of the club’s creators. They named the club Boom Chicago, a nod to their hometown. It started on a small stage in the back of a bar and eventually grew into its own theater off the Leidesplein, Amsterdam’s Times Square. #comedy #boomchicago #amsterdam
