The biggest advantage of being a stand-up comedian? No matter what happens to you in life, whether it's brilliant success or furious failure - at some point it will turn into a brilliant stage act. Pure gold! And so Markus Barth gets out the shovel in his new live show and digs for the nuggets.
The master of maximum-minimalist stand-up ("One stage, one microphone - I'll leave everything else to Helene Fischer") digs wherever it sparkles - but also wherever it hurts. Because heaven knows that not everything in Markus Barth's life has always been pure gold! He ploughs through his own biography, feuding through current events and even looks into the future for his audience ("From what age do I actually have to stomp through German wine villages on racing bike click shoes?").
Along the way, he chats only seemingly harmlessly with the audience, spares no one (especially not himself) and effortlessly manages the balancing act between pain and punchline. Because we know: Comedy is tragedy plus time. Well, and a few jokes don't hurt either. But believe us: Markus Barth has enough of them in his luggage.
