Herr Schröder - The Rest Is Homework — Congress Union, Celle

Herr Schröder, the most senior junior teacher and living embodiment of the overhead projector, presents his new two-hour show "The Rest Is Homework". He illuminates the path to a better future and gives us the teacher we all need. Because school today is a thousand-piece puzzle. Solving it is like squaring the circle.

Look forward to a ray of hope on the horizon of expectations when he says: "Tablets out, log in and get started. Even in the back row! And if we don't quite finish: The rest is homework!"

Johannes Schröder, known as Herr Schröder, is a trained German teacher and comedian/cabaret artist. What sounds like a contradiction is ultimately a humorous form of self-defense. After twelve years in the school system and a side job as a break supervisor, Johannes Schröder set himself the goal of realizing his own comedy project. In 2014, the German teacher moved from Offenburg to Toronto, Canada, where he learned the art of punchlines in numerous comedy clubs. Back in his native city of Berlin, he began writing his first solo show. With his debut "World of Lehrkraft - Ein Trauma geht in Erfüllung", Herr Schröder successfully toured Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

With his second show "Instagrammatik", Herr Schröder definitively hit his stride: not only does he fill the arenas of the republic, but his wild, creative, and instructive reels on social media continuously grow his fanbase, and his shows sell out in no time. Herr Schröder's embracing humor makes him an Instagram hero, and his large community celebrates his output daily - complete with overhead projector.

Herr Schröder has won numerous prestigious awards such as the "Stuttgarter Besen" and "Prix Pantheon", and regularly appears on television, for example in "Die besten Comedians Deutschlands" (SAT.1), "Nuhr im Ersten" (ARD).
