Yorick Thiede – Tannenecker Ouvertüre

In the organizer's words:

Yorick Thiede is a novelty on the German comedy stage, everything from his appearance to the stand-up itself takes place between opposites. His demeanor is coarse, his thought is delicate, the delivery is dry, the stories are engaging and somewhere in the pendulum between these facets stands a young man who is easy to understand but hard to grasp.
Yorick has a natural lightness in his storytelling. Every story, no matter how surreal, is made as three-dimensional and tangible within a few seconds as if you were there yourself.

In his debut solo program "Tannenecker Ouvertüre", which refers by name to a forest in his home town, everything that has made him known as one of the most interesting new talents in recent years comes to the fore. Tales about Thiede's upbringing on a Schleswig-Holstein farm, his youth in the provinces marked by petty crime and the conflicts between his resulting personality and his present life are always interspersed with absurd additions and theories that add a logical conclusion to the nonsense.
