Hennes Bender - "Alter Falter!"

They keep multiplying and there's no stopping them - short of Botox! Wrinkles, of course. Hennes Bender has collected quite a few over the years: under the eyes, around the mouth, worry lines on the forehead, and in places where there weren't even places before.

And then there are the laugh lines of his audience - which Hennes has been responsible for across four decades on stage. In his tenth (!) show, he's back on his short legs, firmly grounded in the everyday madness: playful, a little unhinged, self-aware, and - apart from the odd backache - largely pain-free.

Hennes has no interest in moaning about getting old, because he knows: the old days weren't better - today is just "worse"! And wrinkles, when you think about it, are nothing more than life experience tanned right into your face. Hennes has plenty of both.

The old moth keeps flying! No fear of furrows. Because smooth - well, anyone can do smooth.
