Ingmar Stadelmann

Humor as a way out! For Ingmar Stadelmann, one thing is clear: the polycrises of this world can only end in a gigantic punchline. With his completely new stage program "KOMMT IHR KLAR?" he attempts to find a way out of the human misery of recent years. He recognizes, shows and embodies the only true solution to the problems of this world: humour! The last superpower of mankind - the thing that brings us back together!

Stadelmann is one of a select group of comedians who were allowed to bid farewell to Thomas Hermanns live in front of a large audience and was ennobled by Atze Schröder in the introduction with the sentence: "For me, the best stand-up comedian we have."

Over the past 10 years, Ingmar Stadelmann, who was born in East Germany and lives in Berlin, has enjoyed a string of successes: From the German Comedy Award and numerous cabaret prizes, from acclaimed radio formats to entertainment shows for ProSieben to his own late-night "Abendshow" for rbb. He also toured Germany incessantly with his solo programs "Was ist denn los mit den Menschen?", "#humorphob", "Fressefreiheit", "Verschissmus" and "Außer mir macht's ja keiner!" and thrilled his audience - at the same time, the world was increasingly coming apart at the seams.

Stadelmann's necessary consequence of this worldly and personal development, for himself and his audience, is his new stage program. In the post-escapist stand-up comedy show "KOMMT IHR KLAR?", he once again brings together all the errors and aberrations.

"We are back from our collective escape from reality and must now learn to deal with the new reality. With humor." And in this reality, completely new questions arise: Why aren't climate activists actually sticking themselves to the streets in Kiev? Why does Ingmar's ENT doctor think he's a psychologist? When does constant indignation actually become boring and how often have you thought recently: What would Klaus Kinski have done now?

In this show, Ingmar Stadelmann embraces the contradictions of life and shows how absurdly funny this world is when you declare your subjective view of things to be the only truth. Because, speaking purely subjectively, Ingmar Stadelmann is of course the most important person in the world that you must have seen live. "You can't help but laugh sometimes," Stadelmann sums it up.

Non Stop Stand Up

Hardly any other art form is as ascetic as stand-up comedy: one stage, one person, one microphone, one audience and that's it.

The Rosenau presents a comedy series that takes this simplicity into account and provides the appropriate setting: Entertainment without a break, 70 minutes of concentrated content, an unbroken lecture straight to the twelve! Non Stop Stand Up!

Stand-up comedy developed in the English-speaking world during the 20th century, and over the decades reliable rules and conventions have been established for this format. At the four major festivals in the USA, Canada, Australia and the UK, it is completely unusual for a comedian to perform two halves of a show, each lasting an hour or longer. The tried and tested format here is the hour, just like on tours or in the TV specials of the most successful international comedians.

The Rosenau is now bringing this type of comedy to Stuttgart and is looking forward to energetic evenings with an audience keen to experiment. At the same time, another German peculiarity will be put to rest, namely the distinction between comedy and cabaret. Only in this country is the comic monologue given a separate label simply because it deals with politically or socially relevant topics. At Non Stop Stand Up, a person simply stands on stage and talks "about God and the world" and with those sitting in front of them. He makes them laugh, think or despair. And he doesn't need a break.

Nevertheless, it turns into a whole night out in the Rosenau, because a support act always gets the audience in the mood before the established artist's performance.

Here you can experience stand-up in its purest form. By exquisite comedians who know how to do it.
