In the organizer's words:

Serious, high literature? Nobel Prize winners? Pop culture? Music books? Literary debuts? The publishing house Kiepenheuer & Witsch offers all of this - and also has a completely different category in its range: comedy! And the books to go with it. One comedian comes from Upper Bavaria, the other calls Cologne home. They share a profession and a vocation: the great gift of making their audience laugh. And at the same time, as if by chance, to hold up a humorous mirror to people. Michael Mittermeier, Jürgen Becker and Moritz Netenjakob live for comedy and have been spreading their wit throughout Germany for years. Now the authors of bestsellers such as Achtung, Baby, Ja, was glauben Sie denn? and Macho Man take to the stage together and tell the funniest stories about their own lives and what they experience along the way - as stand-up and in conversation. An evening of wit and good humor. Host: Susanne Pätzold
