Schuss mit Lustig

In the organizer's words:

True crime meets comedy! "SCHUSS MIT LUSTIG!" is the ultimate hit at the COLOGNE COMEDY FESTIVAL. Philipp Fleiter, Maximilian Pollux, Irina Schlauch and presenter Sandra Sprünken bring a completely new mix of the funniest, most bizarre and unbelievable true crime stories to the stage as "partners in crime"! Criminal pension gangs, love letters from prison or the top five dumbest criminals in the world. This somewhat different true crime show not only provides hilarious stories, it also transforms the audience into real accomplices! Be captivated (metaphorically) by the criminally funny stories at "SCHUSS MIT LUSTIG!" on October 29 at the E-Werk in Cologne.

Sandra Sprünken, a stand-up comedian, trained musical performer, true crime fan and absolute improv talent, will guide you through the show. She is known from the podcasts "1a B-Ware" and "Bratwurst und Baklava" and can be seen as a guest on various TV programs and mix shows such as "Nightwash".

Philipp Fleiter is a teacher, psychologist and one of Germany's most successful podcasters. With "Verbrechen von nebenan", he shaped the genre of true crime podcasts. Thanks to its great success, he now also appears on television as an expert on true crime and produces TV adaptations and books on this very subject.

Maximilian Pollux proves like no other: "People change". From gangster to writer is his headline. As a teenager, he was a prolific offender himself and spent ten years in prison - today, as a prevention trainer, author, anti-violence trainer and founding member of an association for innovative youth work, he protects young people from just such criminal pasts.

Irina Schlauch received a television award in the "Best Entertainment Reality" category for her debut television appearance as Germany's first "Princess Charming". Since then, the lawyer has appeared in numerous television and reality game shows. Last year, MDR released eight episodes of her true crime podcast series "Queer Crimes" with Marvin Standke.
