Get ready for a comedy avalanche — This Maag: That is the summit! brings Swiss wit, wild improvisation, and a dash of alpine absurdity to the streets of Christchurch. Blending European-style clowning with razor-sharp timing, This Maag delivers laughter at full altitude — complete with ski poles, snow gags, and a healthy dose of mischief.
He’s a clown without a nose, an improviser without limits, and a performer who can turn any crowd into his stage. Expect sharp physical comedy, audience banter, and spontaneous moments that even he couldn’t predict. One minute you’ll be doubled over laughing, the next you’ll be wondering how he pulled it off.
With more than 35 years of international performances under his belt, This Maag has conquered stages and streets across Europe and beyond — from theatre festivals to television screens. A graduate of the University of Dramatic Arts “Ernst Busch” in Berlin, he brings theatrical precision to his unpredictable street chaos.
Whether you’re a fan of clowning, comedy, or just good old-fashioned mayhem, That is the summit! is a must-see. Expect laughter at high altitude — and trust us, you’ll want to miss something else instead.
