Manuel Wolff
Cologne, Germany
The quick witted german comedian Manuel Wolff recently started
performing in english, after realising that the video of his very first
english performance took off on youtube. The charming young man is known
for his dry observational humour, occasional outbursts of anger and
surprising improvisational skills.
In Germany he won several awards, among them the Master Comedy Slam 2012
and the "Kabarettbundesliga", which could be loosely translated as the"Comedy premier league". He performed at the prestigious Quatsch Comedy
Club in Berlin and tours Germany with his solo show "ui!". In Cologne he
hosts Cologne's best and only Stand-Up-Comedy-Club "Boing!". In
Switzerland he didn't win the Swiss Comedy award.
TV appearances at "Nightwash", "NDR Comedy Contest", "Comedy Lab","Thekenquizzer" and "Late Night Kiosk", where he met the love of his
life, who watched the show and then left for good.
Newspaper quotes, he tried to translate:
"relaxed stage presence"
"Manuel Wolff knew how to excite the audience"
"a whirlwind of comedy"
"award-winning funny-man"
"not bad."
youtube comments:
"Had me laughing like a little school girl, great show keep it up."

"Very witty & creative!"
"Wait he's German, and he has a sense of humor? This is the end of the
world..."
