About:

Join us for a hilarious rollercoaster ride through the absurdity of everyday life in Germany, where even the mundane becomes comedic gold and punchlines hit harder than Monday morning coffee!

In this comedy show, German comedian Manuel Wolff will explore and unpack German stereotypes with disarming self-irony. His spontaneous, unpredictable, yet precisely timed style is unique while he is bursting with ideas and sharp observations quickly switching between sarcasm, silliness, and profound thoughts. For spontaneous musical interludes, Manuel always has his mini-piano with him.

American expat Erin Crouch does comedy from the perspective of someone who was born and raised stateside, but has lived in Germany for quite some time now. Erin's comedy is neither dirty nor clean but a secret third thing. Her new show, Doing it the Hard Way, let's audiences gawk at what happens when someone takes the road not only less traveled, but actually closed for repairs.
