Henning Wehn: Westphalia is Not an Option

As everyone knows the Germans are a witty and sexy people. Henning Wehn isn’t sexy but his show at Brighton Dome was funny. It was however a show of two halves – vintage Henning in Act One with some of his best bits, including getting the audience to sing a Hitler Youth anthem. The second half, with musings on Brexit, immigration and racism was more mixed, getting a bit lost at times. His joke about how he can’t be an immigrant because immigrants usually go somewhere better did get lots of laughs though. I can’t forgive Henning for starting the show 6 minutes late – not German at all.
