Simon Pearce - "Funny Bones"

Comedy is everywhere. And Simon Pearce—he’s got it in his blood. Sounds weird, but it’s funny. When he steps onto the stage, everyday life turns into comedy and everyday troubles turn into stand-up. 

Now he’s back—with his fourth solo show: FUNNY BONES. And the name says it all: Everything Simon experiences ends up right on stage. Honest, charming, sometimes profound, but always damn funny. Even for things that don’t seem all that funny at first glance, he finds a surprisingly comical way out. Because he loves to have fun with life—and he makes sure we do too. After all, we get annoyed enough as it is. 

In FUNNY BONES, Simon shows just how much humor there is in everyday madness: in family life, in being a dad, in living with his wife—and in all those moments that are actually enough to drive you to despair. He observes, feels, exaggerates (just a little), and turns all of that into the finest stand-up comedy. 

His acting talent is his superpower: every scene comes to life. You see it, you feel it, you’re right in the middle of it. Whether it’s marital chaos, quirky encounters, or the little pitfalls of fatherhood—Simon brings it to the stage with an ease that you just can’t help but love.  

The Süddeutsche Zeitung once wrote: “An evening with Simon Pearce feels like listening to a very funny friend in a bar for 90 minutes.” And they should know. 

FUNNY BONES is an evening to take a deep breath, laugh your heart out, and unwind. Turn off your phone, clear your head, open your heart: When Simon Pearce gets going, sharp punchlines collide with real life—no filters, no frills, but with plenty of heart and attitude. Who knows—maybe he really does have funny bones. The only way to find out is to see him live. So: go check it out.
