Jennifer and Michael Ehnert said "I do" a long time ago - and since then, they have been arguing. Mostly publicly, much to the delight of the audience. Thanks to their successful programs "Küss langsam" and "Zweikampfhasen", they have established themselves as relationship combat experts on German stages, who do not shy away from any topic as long as it is suitable for delivering a painful blow to the other.
The Ehnerts can spontaneously give talks about the biological differences between genders, the struggle for women's rights, the function of sex and the dysfunction of sex, the gender pay gap, the #metoo movement, the history of marriage, gender-specific communication deficits, and especially the mistakes of the other – which, to their great surprise, always leads to new arguments.
No question: The Ehnerts need therapy!
However, the two quickly realize that most therapeutic measures are actually based on classic acting techniques. So why go out and spend a horrendous amount of money when they can craft a couple's therapy themselves?! At home, in pajamas - and without any studied third party butting in.
"Wir müssen reden" not only offers deep psychological insights into female brains and men's handbags but also access to secret couple worlds that no outsider has ever entered before.
"Wir müssen reden" is a fast-paced two-person comedy that works like a peep show (only without undressing!), like an open-heart surgery (only without anesthesia!) like a divine enlightenment (only without mercy!).
"Wir müssen reden" provides the two full-blooded comedians Ehnert & Ehnert with yet another battlefield for their highly private marital war. But those who know the Ehnerts suspect that they will not be satisfied with just that: And so "Wir müssen reden" ultimately becomes a worldwide psychological broadside that spares no one.
"With razor-sharp wit and rapid exchanges, the two delivered a fireworks display of mutual accusations. Married for 18 years, their everyday life provides fantastic combustible material and thus the perfect setup for a new program from the Ehnert house. No topic is spared, from current politics to ideological retirees, digital nonsense, everyone gets a piece of the pie across society. Time and again, sex also takes center stage in many facets. With a charming wink, Jennifer and Michael Ehnert engage their audience: “Do you know this too?”, “Is it the same for you?” - and soon the next jab at the spouse flies until the punchline that truly hurts. The audience laughs loud and heartily, sometimes more on his side, sometimes more on her side. Social criticism, self-irony, and pointed observations of everyday life merge into a fast-paced, perfectly tuned mix of facial expressions, gestures, and wordplay. The applause was great – and truly deserved." (Silvia Kleps, Hessisch Niedersächsische Allgemeine)
"Comedy play. For that very genre, the two Hamburg actors Jennifer and Michael Ehnert stand out in this country like hardly anyone else. And what the Ehnerts offer in their new program, ‘Wir müssen reden’, is much more than the relationship battle tested in their successful programs 'Zweikampfhasen' and 'Küss langsam'. After almost 20 years of marriage, the Ehnerts are thematically addressing the global whole. Thus, satire is thought big and done big. Because the Ehnerts also bring Erdogan, Melania Trump, and Hitler to the therapy session, there is at least hope for healing in the petty fight against the evils of this world. With insight, current references, and highly entertaining, the couple succeeds in more than two hours in creating a true masterpiece. And the artist couple Ehnert is (re)discovering themselves in a ‘very, very irritating time’." (Stefan Reckziegel, Hamburger Abendblatt)
