Titter lots at Frankie Howerd's ditties, sketches, limericks and stand up, recorded in front of a specially-invited audience. The star of TV's 'Up Pompeii' and mainstay of innumerable 'Carry-On' films, Frankie Howerd causes a mayhem of mirth, where even his co-stars can't help laughing. As well as songs, stories, naughtiness and his usual audience banter, 'Please Yourselves' sees Frankie visiting his (female) doctor about an accident where he fell artichoke over chip.

Im April 1998 trat Robert Gernhardt auf die Bühne des Bonner Pantheons und präsentierte - sich selbst. Das erheiterte Publikum lernte seine 13 Gesichter kennen, etwa den gottgesandten Propheten, den anspruchsvollen Märchenonkel oder den weit blickenden Kulturkorrespondenten. Mustermann Gernhardt erzählte auch von Italien: Sie sind ein heiteres Volk, diese Italiener. Dolce far niente, heißt ihre Devise. Der Duce tut nichts... Aber hören Sie selbst und lernen Sie Gernhardt so richtig kennen!

Christoph Sieber gelingt mit seinen bitterbösen Texten eine gnadenlose Sicht auf unsere Zeit. Warum werden die, denen wir unsere Kinder anvertrauen schlechter bezahlt als die, denen wir unser Geld anvertrauen? Und wie konnte es kommen, dass wir Konsumenten sind, User, Zuschauer, Deutsche, aber immer weniger Mensch? Doch Sieber wäre nicht Sieber, gäbe es nicht auch immer die schelmische, urkomische, und komödiantische Seite, die uns lachen lässt über unser Dasein und so ein eindrucksvolles und begeisterndes Kabarettvergnügen schafft.

Deutschland, ein Bildungsmärchen. PISA hat offenbart, wo im Land der Dichter und Denker die Schwachstellen liegen. Kann es einen Ausweg aus der Bildungsmisere geben? Wenn Robert Gernhardt, Pit Knorr und Bernd Eilert ihren Senf dazu abgeben, dann dreht sich ohnehin alles nur um eine Frage, um nicht zu sagen die Frage aller Fragen: Na, wie geht's? Die drei Mitbegründer der Satirezeitschriften Pardon und Titanic und Autoren zahlreicher deutscher Komödien, darunter die Otto- und 7-Zwerge- Filme, zeigen uns ein Licht am Ende des Bildungstunnels.

Dieter Nuhr ist der Meister der entspannten Comedy und der König der befreienden Pointe. In seinem Programm "Kein Scherz!" beweist er wieder einmal: Das Leben ist kein Witz, kann aber trotzdem Spaß machen. Dieter Nuhr widersetzt sich dem Zeitgeist dauernder Erregung, seziert unser mediengestörtes Weltbild und hält dagegen mit seiner entwaffnenden Unaufgeregtheit. Ja, wir alle wissen, die Welt wird untergehen! Aber es wird voraussichtlich noch ein paar Millionen Jahre dauern.

A speaker, author, and nationally headlining comedian, who happens to be transgender, Julia got her start as Rick Scotti successfully touring both the United States and Canada.
