Due

Andreas Manz and Bernard Stöckli have for many years been in the service of humour. They offer humorous animations for parties, leaving their hosts and guests with unforgettable memories.
The two artists offer a complete program which can be interactive from the opening scene to the curtain call – equally hilarious whether staged indoors or as a street performance. The number of actors can be varied.
Andreas Manz and Bernard Stöckli are trivially contemporary, and without many words they turn the world upside down or inside out.
Their trademark is a mix of slapstick, poetry, improvisation and bold clownery.
These two professional actors have successfully combined comical entertainment with the art of the theatre.
