Alen Borišek

Dark humour is the signature of Alen Borišek, a comic from Trbovlje who took up stand-up in 2020 and pitches his material, drawn from everyday life, squarely at adult audiences. He worked out his early sets at Prulček bar in Ljubljana and occasionally opened for Marko Žerjal on the Čudni cajti (“Strange Times”) tour.

The Panč festival booked him several times after his first appearance there in 2021. He also appeared at Panč in 2023, 2024 and 2025. In 2024 the nationwide Črni humor (“Dark Humour”) tour put him on the road with Aljaž Poredoš, Sašo Stare and Marko Žerjal, and in August of that year he finished second in a roast competition held at Kostanjev gaj. He was also part of Moška pamet (“Male Mind”), a comedy monologue created by Vid Valič, sharing the stage with Alen Mastnak and Dino Kapetanovič. On screen he appeared in the third season of StendAp predstavlja (“Stand-up Presents”), in an episode released on Voyo.
