DR. POP
HITVERDÄCHTIG – THE MUSIC-COMEDY STAND-UP SHOW! (REGULARLY UPDATED!)

Can you seriously earn a doctorate in pop music? Yes! And what do you do with it? A music-comedy stand-up show.

Dr. Pop is the doctor of music. He treats with music samples and fascinating music facts. In his live program "Hitverdächtig," Dr. Pop decodes which music can save a party, a relationship, and even a life. The audience gets astonishingly funny answers to questions like: Why do termites chew through wood twice as fast when they listen to heavy metal? Why are there typically ten people on laptops working on a hit today instead of one person with a guitar? Dr. Pop fires samples of familiar and new hits from music history – from hip-hop, rock, pop, and schlager to classical and jazz. Dr. Pop makes it audible: there is the right hit for every life situation.

Hitverdächtig – The music-comedy stand-up show for everyone who loves music or wants to start.

“Dr. Pop is the inventor of pop cabaret” (Kölner Stadtanzeiger)

“Markus Henrik, as Dr. Pop, proves to be a great enrichment of the evening, filling the larger comedy halls of the country. With the help of a mysterious control box full of colorful buttons, he plays little films and music snippets, finding victims in gangster rapper Capital Bra and folk rocker Andreas Gabalier to delightfully poke fun at.” (WAZ)

“Anyone who can adapt Donna Summer into a Schuhplattler must have achieved higher academic honors in a musical sense. For the comedian who calls himself Dr. Pop, this is indeed true, which is why his numbers are equally clever and funny.” (Westdeutsche Zeitung)

“You go gladly to this consultation: Dr. Pop!” (WZ, Düsseldorf)

“Dr. Pop is a master at reworking pop songs.” (Deutsche Welle)

“Transported into the highly comedic world of music: Dr. Pop.” (Lübecker Nachrichten)

“Dr. Pop takes the audience on a humorous journey through the musical landscape.” (Wolfsburger Nachrichten)

“The PhD musicologist rocked the stage. Dr. Pop takes care of life-saving, or rather: the musical accompaniment of a heart massage. "Stayin' Alive" is suitable since it has the right rhythm. "Time to say goodbye" is not so advisable. The highlight is Dr. Pop's hip-hop song "We have Wi-Fi failure, and this is already the tenth time this week." He rapped the soul of the suffering audience.” (NRZ)

“You can only like Dr. Pop; he is the best artist I have seen in a long time!!! Unbelievably authentic and very entertaining :)” (Eventim fan review, 1.3.23)
