Ihrlich wäht am längste

In the organizer's words:

In spring 2025, the Kumede Ensemble returns with a real smash hit:

"Ihrlich wäht am längste" This Cologne comedy, hilarious and straight from the heart of life, conquers the Volksbühne am Rudolfplatz - the legendary former Millowitsch Theater. The original? A real stage hit: Ray Cooney's successful play "Caught in the Net", which director Susanne Kamp has transported to our mother city Cologne with a lot of heart and humor. Laughing muscles guaranteed!

And that's what it's all about: Schorsch "Köbes" Küppers is a cab driver and has a secret: he is in two marriages at the same time! He secretly shuttles back and forth between his two households: here he lives with Mia and daughter Stina, there with Leni and son Toni. The only person who knows about this double life is Lisbet Faßbender, Schorsch's sister and best friend.

But suddenly his double happiness threatens to come to an end: Stina and Toni, his two children, have met on the Internet and are planning a meeting!

Schorsch starts to panic - he can already see a double divorce and possibly jail coming his way. He desperately tries not to lose both families and spins ever more absurd tall tales. No scenario is too far-fetched for him. Even phone calls become a challenge: Schorsch slips into different roles with changing accents and doesn't shy away from any excuse, no matter how wild, to maintain his web of lies.

His sister Lisbet, who is also his lodger, puts the icing on the cake. She even outdoes him in her eagerness to cover up Schorsch's double life.

How will this fast-paced comedy end? Can Schorsch achieve the impossible? This much can be revealed: The solution comes at the very end - and with a wonderful punchline!
