Rune is not a fan of traditional classic magic shows where you wear a tuxedo, top hat and take yourself very seriously. Paradoxically, Rune has been heavily inspired by the big Las Vegas shows with big props, but that's where the party stops... It's still Rune Klan. The show is called “Rune Klan Goes Large” and that's exactly what he does - magnifies it all up! Rune toured with “Going Large” in 2007.

I think we've all been longing for something to laugh about. And I've really missed getting out and performing and meeting my beloved live audiences. I can't wait to see them all in the venues. This time it will be pure stand-up from the top shelf. In order to tour during a pandemic and war, you need an easily adaptable set-up... so all I'm bringing is the microphone, myself... and jokes - lots of jokes. Get ready... it's going to be a blast!
