Hubertus Koch

Hubertus Koch is setting out with you to search for beautiful moments in an increasingly ugly world. And yes, the boy is lost – and refuses to be pinned down. Especially not on stage!

Because a simple reading would be way too boring, Hubertus Koch’s live show combines everything he’s done so far: book, film, podcast, stand-up. Hubi reads from his SPIEGEL bestseller LOST BOY, enhances this Balkan road trip story with photos and videos, shows clips from his journalistic films, and offers insights into previously unreleased behind-the-scenes material.

Life experience and chaos in his mind are the raw materials for a live program rooted in real life – one that will make you laugh, cry, and reflect. It’s about self-worth issues and repressed emotions, work and burnout, but also drug-fueled excess, existential dread, and the ever-relevant questions of consent and self-determination.

In an entertaining 120 minutes, Hubi tackles a wide range of topics with a level of honesty that’s hard to find these days.

LOST BOY is both a harsh reckoning and a tender love song – an ode to chaos and an urgent plea to hold on to real moments and genuine human connection in a world that’s becoming more and more artificial. Because in the end, maybe that’s all we have left.

So come through!
If you like his films, you’ll love Hubi’s live show.
