Philip Simon zieht sich regelmäßig in einen Spind zurück, der für die WDR-Fernsehsendung "Mitternachtsspitzen" auf die Bühne geschoben wird, und den der Künstler dann zur Formulierung einiger besonders klarer Sätze verlässt. Das macht er seit 2018 - es ist also Zeit, die vielen großartigen Nummern in einem Best-of zusammenzufügen. Philip Simon kommt hierfür aus seinem Spind, direkt ins Aufnahmestudio und gibt seine Nummern zum Besten - dabei blickt er auf die Entstehungszeit zurück und stellt neue und aktuelle Zusammenhänge her.

Originally broadcast on Radio 4 in 2003-4, We’ve Been Here Before is the topical, satirical, historical panel game that aims to show beyond all doubt that there’s nothing new in the news. Hosted by award-winning comedian, broadcaster and Whose Line Is It Anyway? star Clive Anderson, it takes a wry, witty look at long-gone days through a present-day lens, as the panellists battle it out to discover who’s got the best memory for detail when it comes to raking up the past.

Ende der Schonzeit! Philip Simon geht auf die Jagd nach dem Wahnsinn des Lebens und so absurd es auch sein mag, so befreiend ist seine Freude an der Sinnlosigkeit politischer Debatten und der Sinnlosigkeit tagtäglicher Handlungen. Ganz zu schweigen von der Sinnlosigkeit des Seins.

In seinem ersten Solo-Kabarett-Programm erzählt Christoph Simon (auf Schweizerdeutsch) von Mitbewohnern und Arbeitskollegen und Verliebtheiten, die zu Freundschaften gewachsen sind. Von Serge, mit dem er das Konfirmationslager verbracht hat - an eine Tanne gefesselt. Von Max, zusammengeschweißt dank Interrail und Baywatch. Was macht Freundschaft aus? Wie verhält man sich (nicht), wenn die Freundin des besten Freundes besser zu einem selber passen würde?

70 Jahre Grundgesetz - was für ein Jubiläum. Am 23. Mai 1949 erlassen, sollte es lediglich bis zur Wiedervereinigung Deutschlands gelten. Doch ist aus dem Provisorium längst der unverrückbare Grundstein der Bundesrepublik Deutschland geworden. Neben der Gliederung in Judikative, Exekutive und Legislative Staatsorgane legt das Grundgesetz auch die Grundrechte jedes Menschen in der Bundesrepublik fest. Doch gerade in Zeiten des politischen Aufruhrs stellt sich die Frage, wie es um die Einhaltung dieser Gesetze bestellt ist.

A rare phenomenon to say the least, Simon King is the kind of comic that comes along maybe once in a generation. Every performance is an onslaught, an unrelenting attack on the senses.
