GUEST SHOW: Der Tod - Gevatter Unser

Death is a tough gig. Religions around the world promise rebirth and reincarnation, modern medicine tirelessly chases eternal life, and now the Grim Reaper's perennial rival - the stork - has dropped an egg right on his crypt's doorstep. What a mess. People keep living longer and the world's population grows without pause. No wonder that the Godfather now also has to make sure little Totellini gets a nursery spot and that the new babysitter doesn't walk straight into the toy scythe on her very first evening.

In his fourth evening show, the inventor of Death Comedy - blessed with an angelic voice - tackles the (grave)stones that keep getting thrown in his path. He shares the latest photos from his legendary album and reports, with the freshness of decay, on what it's like to show up at work with a child in tow. One thing is certain after "Gevatter Unser": dying has never been this cute.

"You there, scram." (Totellini)
"What annoys me most are those helicopter parents who go absolutely wild just because my son buried their kids in the sandbox." (Death)
"I was furious when Death showed up at my door. But when the little one grinned at me from his arm, I just couldn't hold my own demise against him anymore." (Erika Mustergrab)
