Description was written before the event

The Great Loriot Evening is a special show celebrating the work of one of Germany's most beloved humorists and satirists. An evening filled with iconic sketches, cartoons, and texts that have become cornerstones of German comedy.

About: Loriot

Vicco von Bülow, known to all as Loriot, shaped German comedy like no one else - his sketches, cartoons, and films remain as sharp and funny today as when they first appeared. Quotes like 'Die Ente bleibt draußen' have long since taken on a life of their own in the German language.
