Germans make Schport and where, please, is the sparkling water: More than half a million people follow on social media as the American Jordan Prince dissects German clichés. His first live show – sold out. The story of an unexpected dream.
Jordan Prince runs onto the stage and calls out to the audience in English: “Consider me your comedy virgin.” It’s 8 p.m. sharp, a dark, cold winter evening, the Milla Club in Munich is packed and the young man – wearing dungarees, a beanie hat, tennis socks and Birkenstock slippers – says: “Let me make one thing crystal clear: I’m not German. ” And that’s exactly what it’s about: Jordan Prince, 33, is an American who moved to Munich about eight years ago and who is now watched by more than half a million people on Instagram and TikTok talking about “the Germs”, as he affectionately and teasingly calls the Germans, making them funny. And whose first stage appearance as a comedian was sold out within a few hours.
