New York Comedy Festival Presents: The World According to Comedians here at Carolines on Broadway.

Finland – a cold, sparsely populated country covered in darkness half of the year, with the most metal bands and coffee consumed per capita and a shared 800 mile border with Russia – is also the “happiest nation on earth” for the 5th year in a row according to a study by the United Nations.

In the spring, comedians Tumi Morake, Liza Treyger, and Aditi Mittal embarked on a hilarious road trip together throughout Finland to find out what the country’s recipe for happiness actually is. Come along for a gut-busting raucous night of comedy and find out precisely what makes this nordic country so happy…as well as so much more! This is The World According to Comedians.
