Vee have vays of making you laugh. Let's make comedy songs, not war.

Meet Bodo Wartke: one of the biggest stars of the German comedy scene. His love song Liebeslied, can be peformed by Bodo in eighty-eight languages and is a global Youtube phenomenon with over two and a half million hits. If you google 'Bodo Wartke Liebesliedgenerator', you can create your own love-song (including languages such as Cantonese, Neomalenesian and Klingon) and see what all the fuss is about. Better to come and see it live though!

Meet Jens Heinrich Claassen: his parents have let him go to the Edinburgh festival and are happy that he will be meeting so many nice people. Maybe he might even meet a girl. If not, he's still got four iPhones to play with. The show lasts one hour and after the show Jens will be available for autographs, ice cream and talks on the pros and cons of the iPad 2's new operating system. Don't mention Laurence Llewelyn Bowen.

Achtung: real piano in action. And real Germans. In English. Hosted by the organiser of the Musical Comedy Awards and German comedy fan, Ed Chappel. Prepare for the invasion!
