He got the job. He got the passport. He still needs the DNA.

PURE VIKING BLOOD is Ulug Bek's stand-up show about moving from Uzbekistan to Scandinavia, loving it, and almost fitting in — for expats who are confused, and Scandinavians who want to know why.

He studied in Sweden. He lives in Denmark. He identifies as technically Scandinavian — biologically suspicious.

Ulug has done his best to integrate. He cycles. He recycles. He avoids eye contact on public transport. Chances are, you'll recognise yourself somewhere in it.

Ulug Bek has toured with sold-out shows across Denmark and performed at festivals in Sweden, Finland, Iceland, and the Netherlands.
