Johann König - A king today

Johann König, the depressed life of the party from Cologne, is going on tour again in 2027. And he’ll be more hopeful, cheerful, and passionate than ever before!

His new live show is an unvarnished reflection of his home life—and we know: Johann comes from a tough background. His cat, Hekto-Pascal, is overweight; his wife can’t stand being hungry; and all three of their children are still of school age.

But the king among the Johanns is a master at turning the resulting family madness on its head.

Turning it into the opposite.

Into wise, crazy, and wonderful waves of words.

Into radiant songs and golden poems.

His method is no secret. Like lightning, this lucky fellow rubs wit and intelligence together, igniting a thunderous fireworks display of synapses that still twitches and sparks days later.

His devoted humility and selfless dedication to his audience work to his advantage.

Instead of ascending the throne himself, he crowns the fun.

Whatever.

Johann König’s humor is like whipped cream on a freshly poured Pilsner. Somewhat treacherous, but always funny. And everyone can feel like a king—find out exactly how in “Heute ein König.”
