Kay Ray is an entertainer with heart and experience. Do you know the feeling of taking off shoes that are too tight? You feel free.
Experience an evening that takes off those tight shoes right from the start. Kay Ray sings from Milva to Kate Bush, from Reinhard Mey to Rammstein. There is nothing that cannot be done. "What happens outside doesn't interest me. If the world ends today, it does so without me," sang Ina Deter in the 90s. Comedy without attitude. Just for fun. An evening of music and text. And: NO! Renaming a sauce will not save the world.
It is humor that gives us answers in daily madness that help us much more than the hyper-hypocritical virtue guardians everywhere. "What connects the common climate activist with the even more common parliamentarian? The sticking! The climate activist sticks to the street - the parliamentarian to his post. Perhaps long-term members of the German Bundestag should be renamed to 'Those who have been sticking here longer'."
Kay Ray sings songs by everyone and jokes about all. Because where fun stops, misery begins. Who forbids laughter, forbids us life. The Kay Ray Show. A funny, musical, and hard-hitting reckoning with the spirit of the times.
Chris Tal thanked Kay Ray at the Bambi Awards in November 2019. He owed his breakthrough with Stefan Raab to an attitude and a joke that was significantly shaped by Kay Ray and brought to the stage in Chris Tal's style. "Can he do that?" would not have been possible without Kay Ray's inspiration. Torsten Sträter about Kay Ray: "You are Kay Ray, and that is a lot. You are a total work of art, a one-man circus. You are the grim reaper of humor..."
Arnulf Rating: "Kay Ray - one who stands up for his truth with everything he has. He takes every risk. And is a sparkling happiness grenade with high explosive power. You have to experience this live! Go!"
Ingmar Stadelmann in an interview in October 19: "If there is something that annoys me about the German comedy scene, it is that a comedian like Kay Ray, after over 20 years on stage and genius, still does not get decent attention in television or even have his own show. That seems absurd to me. But who am I?"
