Matthias Jung: SPIEGEL bestselling author, qualified educator, comedian

Congratulations, you're parents! And with that, you're magicians, jack-of-all-trades and superheroes.

You manage (more or less) effortlessly to sleep in the smallest of spaces in the most awkward positions for years on end, to tackle endless mountains of washing and to navigate heated discussions with your child or teenager.

There's no question about it: we love our children, but sometimes they drive us mad. Our homes are often in utter chaos - and so are our minds.

Don't worry: our favourite parenting expert, Matthias Jung, offers exactly the relief that parents sometimes need. His feel-good show is balm for the parental soul: humorous, approachable and full of practical tips for anyone who occasionally reaches their limits in everyday family life - and that happens to absolutely everyone, regardless of how old their child is. As a SPIEGEL bestselling author, qualified educator and comedian, Matthias Jung combines experience, expertise and sharp humour. His motto is: "Chill out. Better happy than perfect!"

"Parenting with Dignity" is a refreshing blend of educational expertise, comedic self-reflection and plenty of "'I know that'" and "'I feel that'" moments. And that includes that wonderful line to our partner or best friend as we're leaving: "That really did us a world of good!" A live comedy experience for beginners, the more experienced and anyone who wants to know what parenting is really like.

IMPORTANT NOTE FROM THE AGENCY:

The genre is comedy. Please do NOT advertise Matthias as "cabaret".
