Denmark's most chaotic millionaire: planes, parties, and absolutely zero shame.
Comedy stage show portraying the legendary Danish multi-millionaire Simon Spies who lived quite an unusual life in the 70's and 80's, filled with sex, ladies, booze, drugs, business, and airplanes. A man who constantly played around with the medias.

Anders Matthesen's gleefully shameless transformation into Denmark's most infamous playboy.
Production
Gloriously tacky 70s-80s aesthetic that matches the subject's taste level.

Sharp satire of how Spies weaponized scandal for free publicity.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Simon Spies essentially invented the Danish concept of 'kendis' (tabloid celebrity), turning personal scandal into free advertising for his travel empire. The Danes loved to hate him.
Anders Matthesen is Denmark's biggest stand-up star; this was his first major film role, essentially playing the country's most notorious hedonist as a one-man show.
