Bavaria: Ex-head of the laughing and shooting society calls for rejuvenation

Munich (dpa / lby) - The longtime boss of the crisis-ridden Munich laughing and shooting society now sees a younger generation on the train. "Basically, I think that completely new, younger people should actually take over," said the ex-head of the cabaret stage, Till Hofmann, of the "Süddeutsche Zeitung" (Friday edition).

The traditional stage is threatened with bankruptcy, and there is a heated argument between the three shareholders, including Bruno Jonas.

Jonas and co-partner Laila Nöth announced in a press release on Monday that the game was currently closed, the signature of the third partner Stefan Hanitzsch was missing. The corona pandemic has significantly exacerbated the financial problems, Nöth and Jonas explain the standstill. They want to review the legal and financial implications of the situation.

"I totally regret it and the situation also makes me sad that the 'Laugh and Shoot' is in such a bad shape now. But I believe that there can be a solution to survival. If everyone does what they do best "Hofmann told the SZ. "Bruno Jonas is one of the best German-speaking cabaret artists. One would like to advise him: go on stage and leave everything else out."
