Selfie of mom! When parents want to be cool.
The sky is bright blue, but it's going to rain. Why? Because that's what the weather app says! Too bad Dad forgot to update the date again. Mum, on the other hand, is enjoying the new photo-editing app that allows her to make her son look 100 kilograms heavier. In the face. But this photo accidentally ends up on Facebook.
Chris Tall, the winner of numerous comedy & cabaret awards (including "RTL Comedy Grand Prix" and "Hamburger Comedy Pokal") shows in his new solo "Selfie von Mutti! Wenn Eltern cool sein wollen." the pitfalls of modern technology and how it can affect the relationship between parents and children. Humorously, the young comedian describes stories from his life and how it can be endured as a teenager between unconditional parental love and being annoyed at the same time.
What to do when Mum asks the first girlfriend embarrassing questions over hot cocoa? Or when Dad tries to look cool while boxing on the Wii and breaks his daughter's nose bone in the process?
With a perfect sense of timing, Chris belts out his punchlines to the audience, taking them by the hand, everyone finds a little Chris Tall in themselves too.
Chris Tall delivers generational help, illuminating both sides of the son-parent catastrophe; and not least, he himself becomes a victim of his gags. But at the end of an evening full of happy tears of laughter it will always be:
bei Mutti ist es doch am Schönsten!
