COMEDY THAT CONNECTS CULTURES...
... by not taking its own too seriously.
I Can Make You German: Humor that
transforms how people see Germany. And you.
If you're an organization out to win hearts and minds for Germany, Paco Erhard's I Can Make You German will transform the way people see you and "the Germans".
With Paco Erhard, Germany can now present itself with the humor, honesty, and charm the world has been hoping for for a long time. And within the laughs, he gives captivating insight into just why we Germans are the way we are.
I Can Make You German presents a Germany that is astoundingly fun, hilarious, and exciting. Belly laughs meet lightbulb moments for an hour straight.
A stand-up pro!"

Precision-engineered for cultural institutions:
Sells out, inspires, and attracts new members
I Can Make You German helps sell out your event, gets your whole city excited, brings your community together, makes even your goth nephew laugh (he'll hate it), and has people's eyes shine for years to come when they remember Paco's jokes at your event. And it leaves people knowing the real, modern Germany behind the scenes – Deutschland like they've never seen it before.
The result: delighted guests, rave reviews, a city that loves you, and a real bond of affection between cultures. Which isn't always the effect we Germans have when we go places.
"Valuable insights into the German psyche and absolutely hilarious!
Arpad Sölter
Director Goethe Institut Australia
WE were so Happy!"
Belly laughs that create togetherness.
And Deutschland facts that wow even Germans
Nothing connects people like laughing together. Pair this with real insights about each other and why we are the way we are, and you have an evening that inspires forever.
Experience hysterical dilemmas on the Autobahn. Learn why 89% of Germans laugh at lederhosen, and bier steins don’t exist. Get how "German humorlessness" is both true and not true at all. The ancient trauma that makes Germans love rules and planning quite so much. How we Germans aren't blunt or rude — we just value honesty more highly than other people's feelings. But also: the deeply entwined history of Germans and Americans.
Understand Germany better. Understand your Oma Hilda better. Understand yourself better. And laugh your socks off in the process.

"Who are you???"
"You have to come to dinner sometime!"
Stands on 🇺🇸's door step at 7pm expectantly,
holding a bottle of wine and home-made potato salad.
Angrily downs wine, pelts house with potato salad yelling "🇺🇸s are so superficial!", stomps home.

"Oh that guy, from earlier. Yeah, he seemed nice..."

"He keeps the room in stitches,
whether you're German or not.
