Comedian Pierre Novellie was on stage when a heckler suggested he was autistic. Usually, this disruption would be water off a duck's back but two things made this heckler different: first, he was himself autistic. Second, he turned out to be absolutely right. This random encounter led to a diagnosis of autism at the age of 31 that unravelled his world, explained his struggles and answered questions that had bothered him for his entire life: why were the other kids obsessed with Britney Spears instead of The Goon Show? Why don't people ever say what they mean? Why is everyone chewing so loudly?

Tom Scharpling is good at being funny, which is a miracle, considering what he’s survived. Like hitting a deer and narrowly escaping with his life on the night of the 2016 election. But that’s nothing compared to the struggles he had earlier in his life. It Never Ends is his memoir of a life writing comedy amidst a lifelong struggle with mental illness, a story he has never told before.

Alan Zweibel started his comedy career selling jokes for seven dollars apiece to the last of the Borscht Belt standups. Then one night, despite bombing on stage, he caught the attention of Lorne Michaels and became one of the first writers at Saturday Night Live, where he penned classic material for Gilda Radner, John Belushi, and all of the original Not Ready for Prime Time Players. From SNL, he went on to have a hand in a series of landmark shows - from It’s Garry Shandling’s Show to Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Wo bitte gehts zur Bühne? JP Weber weiß es. Er ist seit vielen Jahren als Komponist für zahlreiche Kölner Bands und natürlich sich selber erfolgreich aktiv. Seine wohlklingende Mandoline mutiert durch seine einzigartige Spielweise auf der Bühne beinahe zu einer Big Band. Jetzt wird der Virtuose zum Autor – was wiederum logisch erscheint, denn seine Auftritte sind ja längst schon kleine (Bütten-)Reden. In elf Kapiteln gibt er einen tiefen Einblick über die wichtigsten Punkte als Protagonist im Kölner Karneval.

Nu finns David Batras hyllade standup-show som ljudbok! På ett personligt och lekfullt sätt beskriver komikern fördelarna och fallgroparna med det där som alla vet, men som han tidigare undvikit att prata om – att vara gift med en före detta partiledare.

World tour of Skåne är en standup-show som skämtar friskt om bl. a. hur det är att bo hemma hos mamma och pappa som vuxen. Hur det var att vara skolpolis i småskolan, hur det är att ha blivit pappa och hur det kan gå när man drar en lögn när man har dubbelbokat sig på ett gig. Johan Glans är komikern med den sparsmakade mimiken som vi sett i shower som Parlamentet, Kvarteret Skatan m.fl. Han har dessutom vunnit priser som Årets komiker, Årets skåning och är sedan 2012 hedersmedborgare i Eslöv. Den här showen spelades in 2008 under Johans...

Med sin turnétrilogi, World tour of Skåne, World tour of Skandinavien och World tour of the world, är Johan Glans en av de standupkomiker som sålt flest biljetter i landet. Sedan han år 2018 avslutade sin senaste standupturné har han mestadels jobbat med film och tv, men nu är han tillbaka på den stora livescenen igen – på sin första egna sommarturné någonsin. När turnén blev offentlig spreds ordet snabbt och redan en timme efter biljettsläpp hade det sålts 20 000 biljetter. Under sommaren besökte turnén utsålda spelplatser i hela Sverige.

Ob Tag des alten Gesteins, Butterbrot- oder Fischbrötchentag: Aktionstage füllen unseren Kalender über das Jahr. Der gescheiterte Lehrer und Schlaumeiner Peter und sein gewiefter Kumpel Conny nehmen auf ihre eigensinnige und hinterlistige Weise genau diese Aktionstage aufs Korn.
