Watch German Comedy Ambassador Henning Wehn give everything a good rinse and witness him wring sense out of the nonsensical.
An unbiased look at a certain virus might be inevitable but Henning has no agenda; he just happens to be always spot on. It’s a curse.
This is a welcome return to The Queen's Hall for Henning with a brand new show. Early booking is advised to avoid disappointment.
This is a two-hour show with a 20 minute interval.
