In the organizer's words:

Bruno Knust: Günna is good for the soul

The world situation is complicated. Many things seem broken, construction sites everywhere and you often get the feeling that nothing works anymore.
But then Günna comes along. The voice of Westphalia. And he gives us hope again. With an evening to laugh, remember and feel good.

Born on Borsigplatz and raised in Eving, Bruno "Günna" Knust is known far beyond the Ruhr region for his unmistakable dialect.
His entertainment thrives on quick-wittedness, spontaneity and a direct line to the audience.

He has been on stage for almost four decades, with a free, off-the-cuff approach and a keen sense of the people of the Ruhr and their stories.
He brings the Ruhrpott to the stage as it really is: warm, honest and hilarious.

He also loves to take the pulse of his home town with affectionate malice and topical commentary.

Günna takes his audience on a journey home through popular scenes from previous programs and, as the cherry on the cake, serves up plenty of new, dewy material from his inexhaustible Dortmund "bag of words".

Günna knows the Dortmunders, looks them in the mouth, sometimes presses where it hurts and, with his own unique style, ensures that you can laugh heartily even in difficult times. Because: The reality in Doatmund is very different from reality.
