Ivan Thieme

In the organizer's words:

I feel

It's almost impossible not to spontaneously like him as he stands on stage in his light gray suit and talks about his life. With his special sense of humor, which makes him look at his numerous "strange habits" with both affection and amusement, he has long since earned himself a permanent place on the capital's stages. People know him, even though he is one of the youngest members of the Berlin comedy underground: Ivan Thieme.

Now he is presenting his first full-length solo with "Fühl ich". He prefers to talk about his everyday life in his jokes - and sometimes seems a little awkward or even a little embarrassed. However, appearances are deceptive. At least a little. Because Ivan not only has a very unique view of the world, he's also got it thick as a fist behind his ears. As an astute observer, he regularly hits the mark with his self-deprecating descriptions, which often take unexpected turns: whether it's linguistic hurdles, hopeless Tinder experiments or embarrassing encounters in the ice cream parlor, the effects of corona on relationships and dating, life in the big city or the Ukrainian mother's parenting methods - Ivan is able to extract at least one excellent punchline from everything and everyone. His observations are very subjective on the one hand, but at the same time so universal that you almost inevitably find yourself in them and can therefore laugh with him rather than at him. Perhaps Ivan is (still) too young to be sarcastic or cynical. It is more likely, however, that it simply doesn't suit him. He mocks. Passionately. But he doesn't mock. The way he perceives himself and the scenes in which he finds himself is somehow gentle. And affectionate. That's why it can happen that Ivan has to laugh on stage just as much as his audience in the auditorium. And they are guaranteed to have a good time - in a very special, wonderfully light and carefree way.
