The show is distributed within the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria as part of project BG-RRP-11.016-0057-C01 – Presentation of the stand-up comedy show “Politically Correct”, funded by the European Union through the NextGenerationEU instrument.
Radu Isac’s visit to Sofia, Plovdiv, and Stara Zagora turned into a series of memorable evenings where humor met cultural analysis, and audiences experienced a different kind of stand-up performance.
Sofia
In the capital, the evening stood out with a dynamic audience and strong interaction. Radu Isac quickly built a connection with the crowd, incorporating improvisation and real-time reactions. A key focus was on themes of modern “political correctness” and how it is interpreted across different European societies.
Plovdiv
In Plovdiv, the show unfolded in a more intimate setting, allowing for a deeper immersion into the comedian’s stories and observations. Personal narratives, cultural comparisons, and Isac’s signature balance between humor and reflection were particularly prominent.
Stara Zagora
The performance in Stara Zagora was marked by active audience participation and strong engagement with the interactive elements. The quizzes and direct questions to the audience created a shared experience, where the boundary between stage and audience became less distinct.
Conversations and Discussions After the Show
After each performance, Radu Isac took time to engage in conversations with the audience, naturally extending the themes explored on stage. Attendees had the opportunity to ask questions, share their perspectives, and participate in informal discussions related to cultural differences, social norms, and the role of humor in contemporary society.
These exchanges fostered a sense of community and transformed the event into more than just a performance—it became a platform for dialogue and the sharing of ideas and experiences.
