The mixed programme at the English Comedy Night - presented by Humorlabor - features a varied selection of first-rate English-speaking comedians performing comedy in the native language of true stand-up – demonstrating that when it comes to humour, everyone speaks the same language. But no worries, the comedians are all experienced performers on both German and English stages, so laughs are guaranteed for all.

Gerhard WALTER
I wouldn’t have thought that snooker and sumo wrestling had anything in common except breathing and the “s” at the beginning. I was also surprised to learn that not only synchronized swimming is a sport, but solo synchronized swimming is as well. Sport is about joy, fair play and winning. Is winning in sports the same as winning in life? I don't know. Probably not. What I know for sure is: For a successful life, it is important that the incidence of being flattened by a steam roller occurs with relative infrequency. This spares the vocal cords and elevates one’s overall recall value in the public space. It’s not often that everything is good, but a lot of it is not that bad either. Some of it is even pretty amazing.
Gerhard Walter has a diploma in philosophy and acting. He has spent a lot of time in the USA and England. He has worked with many nice colleagues in the industry. Gerhard lives in Vienna and tours Austria with his current show “I wasn’t prepared for myself”. His next show will be in English. Working title: “Maximum Break – 147”.
