Patrick Nederkoorn

Dutch cabaret artist PATRICK NEDERKOORN has been performing on German stages for several years now. In his second German-language show, *THE FLEEING DUTCHMAN*, he shares his amazement and experiences with his large neighboring country. Why do the Germans have so many dirty sayings? Are there more speed cameras or regulations in Germany? And why is the German tax program named “Elster,” after a thieving bird?

*DER FLIEHENDE HOLLÄNDER* is a refreshingly funny and musical show that weaves personal stories with current topics. The Amsterdam-born comedian talks in a charming, disarming, and humorous way about borders, love, family, and taxes. 
And about how to bridge the gaps between people. Simply the funniest form of international understanding.

Patrick Nederkoorn is known from the SAT.1 show DIE BESTEN COMEDIANS DEUTSCHLANDS—and as a Dutchman, that’s saying something. With his first show, DIE ORANGENE GEFAHR, he was nominated for the PRIX PANTHEON and won the KOMIKER JACKPOT.

*THE FLEEING DUTCHMAN* is a collaboration with the Kom(m)ödchen in Düsseldorf.
