History of the Faroe Islands (Please Don’t Laugh) By David Valley

Ever wondered about the history of the Faroe Islands? No? Well, too bad. You’re going to hear about it anyway.
This is a deeply serious exploration of the Faroese past, featuring no jokes whatsoever. Only facts you never asked for and will probably forget immediately afterward. And that’s perfectly fine.
For once, we as a nation are trying to be taken seriously, and this show is part of that effort.
What to Expect:
Faroese comedian David Valley takes the audience through Viking history, patriotism, Danish rule, and sheep-related infrastructure. Expect a thorough, 100% academic analysis grounded in historical records, including occasional attempts to explain why the Faroe Islands have their own language, flag, and football team despite sounding vaguely invented.
There will also be PowerPoint slides, songs, audience interaction, and possibly a game.
The Tour:
David Valley is touring this show across Europe, having already sold out in Reykjavík, Copenhagen, Tallinn, and Tórshavn (which has been surprising for everyone involved, especially the Faroese).
Now it comes to Prague, a city with a long history of empires, strange political arrangements, and people trying to explain their country to outsiders. So, in that sense, you may be emotionally prepared for the Faroe Islands.
Sit back, relax, and prepare to learn everything about very little. The history, the culture, and one man’s slightly desperate attempt to explain the Faroe Islands to the outside world. Don’t worry, it’s more boring than it sounds.
The only show about Faroese history in the whole world.
And whatever you do, please don’t laugh.
