About Max Elias
Airplane Baby is a comedy show by Max Elias, a New Yorker-turned-Berlin comedian with a lot to say about both cities. The show is a 75-minute free-entry comic barrage full of wild observations, out-of-pocket comparisons and gleefully warped conclusions. Themes include identity, social commentary and dark thoughts — the average baby would not have them. Max offers culture shocks, mismatched expectations and seemingly random facts throughout. The show is performed at Terrace, Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and is for audiences aged 18 and over. Content warning: contains distressing or potentially triggering themes.
Why see this show?
A free 75-minute stand-up show from a comedian who spans New York and Berlin and has plenty of cultural friction to work with. Dark, curious and described as leaving the audience a couple of kilos lighter from laughter — an unusual hour or more at the Fringe.
