Cabaret | Florentine Osche and Falk Pyrczek "Young Comedy"

Florentine Osche is chronically underestimated - but never for long. The moment this Berlin-born comedian starts telling her jokes, she floors the audience with unexpectedly dark punchlines. Given everything Florentine has been through, she barely had a choice - though few people end up as a successful comedian after a snobby "elite" grammar school and a near-miss medical degree. Florentine Osche is now a fixture of the Berlin comedy scene, having already appeared on ZDF, at the Quatsch Comedy Club, and on rbb. She has answers to all sorts of unasked questions... more or less.

"Immer zu viel" (Always Too Much) is not just Falk Pyrczek's first solo show - it's a realisation he came to early: I am always too much, in every area of life. Whether it's family, his girlfriend, friends, or work - Falk has a talent for leaving people speechless. Sometimes brilliantly, sometimes roughly. But the upside of always being too much is that you always have something to talk about. And Falk can tell a story like few others. He takes the audience on a journey into his inner world - to where it hurts, back to his youth, out to the countryside and then into the city, through therapy sessions, dates, and relationships. And then he laughs about it. Because what else can you do when you're always too much?
