Nikita Miller • Natural Born Miller • Sitz-Stand Up... • Die neue Show live in DESiMOs spezial Club im Theater am Aegi

When Nikita was expelled from grammar school in the 90s because he was supposedly "too Russian" for Schiller, he had no idea that this very cultural divide would one day become his greatest treasure. Between German sandwiches and Russian pierogi, between the secondary school playground and the stories of his grandmother who was deported to Kazakhstan, he found his very own path.

Today, while the world is once again upside down, Miller digs deep into his family history and finds astonishing parallels to the present. He wants to know: What actually makes us who we are? The genes of our ancestors? The place where our identity card was issued? Or perhaps the fact that we were the only ones in the class who knew how to pronounce "Dostoyevsky" correctly?

With the precision of a German master watchmaker and the soul of a Russian poet, Miller takes his audience on a journey through time and cultures. Because in the end, it's like a good borscht - it's the mixture that makes it interesting. And sometimes it takes an identity crisis to find out who you really are.

"I laughed three times in 2020. One of them was about Nikita Miller. I'm afraid this man is actually funny. Nikita says what Kazakh is. And much more. In German. And funny. No! Very funny." OlafSchubert - comedian, cabaret artist and musician

"Authentic and charismatic, funny and exciting, philosophical and profound (...) An expert - a young old master of the art of storytelling, which he brings back to life."
