Longerich

Katharina Block is an award-winning stand-up comedian (including winner of the 2026 Hamburg Comedy Cup), a lawyer, a mother of five—and definitely not one to keep quiet. She talks about failure, about perseverance, and about the daily madness that arises from the gap between expectations and reality. She talks about role models that nobody asked for. About responsibility that usually falls on women.

She’s quick, direct, and very, very sharp.

She says what she thinks, and she means what she says.

In her first solo show, *Longerich*, sheexplorestopics ranging from a nervous breakdown on the playground to brazen pick-up lines on the dance floor, all the way to the question of why women constantly feel ashamed while men often possess a disturbing level of self-confidence. She combines her personal reflections on her role as a mother and a woman in an unconventional way with her insights into our patriarchal society.

At the end of her story, she wants one thing above all else:

More mutual respect and more love!
