Marc-Uwe Kling Quote

Marc-Uwe Kling (German pronunciation: [ˌmaʁkʔuːvə ˈklɪŋ] ; born 1982) is a German songwriter, author, and Kabarett (political stand-up comedy) artist. He studied philosophy and drama at Freie Universität Berlin.
Since 2003, Kling regularly performs on various stages in Berlin. Frequently, he performs at literary and Kabarett events as well as poetry slams. In 2004, he founded a serial public literary event called Lesedüne (a pun made of the German words Lesebühne, "lecture stage", and Düne, "dune"). Since 2005, Kling tours with his program Wenn alle Stricke reißen, kann man sich nicht mal mehr aufhängen (If all ropes snap, you can't even hang yourself anymore), which is also the title of his first album. Every first Tuesday of the month, he organizes and hosts the Kreuzberg Slam in the Lido (formerly Kato) location, and every first Wednesday the Poetry Slam of Studentisches Kulturzentrum in Potsdam.
Kling hosts the weekly podcast Neues vom Känguru ("News from the Kangaroo") for Fritz, a Potsdam-based radio station, which deals with the same theme as his book Die Känguru-Chroniken (The Kangaroo Chronicles): A "phlegmatic anarchist" who lives with a talking, "pragmatically communist" kangaroo as his roommate.
In 2017, Kling published a comedic dystopian novel titled QualityLand.
In March 2019, HBO announced that they would create a series based on the book, directed by Mike Judge.
