The seeds of Stand-up Hanoi were sown back in August 2010 when we received an out-of-the-blue offer to host an Aussie comic who happened to be passing through. Legendary for all the wrong reasons the show attracted a full house, evidence of Hanoi’s thirst for more alternative entertainment. We set up as Ha Ha Hanoi in 2010, rebranded as Sơn Tinh Nights (2012), changed to CAMA Comedy (2015), before settling on Stand-up Hanoi in 2016. Step-by-step Hanoi has become a recognised destination for travelling comics as stand-up comedy has begun to blossom throughout South-East Asia in general, and in Vietnam in particular.
