Solo Shows
Belgian-born, Berlin-based, whether wearing a bathrobe or a suit, Manu Louis has made countless people dance on their teeth and jump on their beers for the last ten years. He has performed around 900 times across Europe and Asia, delivering a solo show that is sharp and high-intensity. Expect a kaleidoscope of club culture, punk energy and acidity.
"If you’ve seen it before, you’ll come back; if not, you’re going to freak out. Manu Louis is about to throw the party you deserve" El Liceo Mutante
“More colourfull than a unicorn vomiting a rainbow” Gonzai
“Pop fantastique et Fantasque” France Culture
“The Stromae of the Underground” Le Soir
“The Iannis Xenakis of the dancefloor.” Skug
"One of the most upbeat, funny, entertaining gigs ever" Mondo Bizarre
« Berlin's Manu Louis is alone onstage too, dressed like an extra from Miami Vice and accompanied by an array of electronic gadgetry from which he conjures a slightly manic set of highly kitsch electro-pop that variously sounds like a Generation Game take on DAF, a Latino cruise ship crooner with an abstract industrial electronica fetish; a Mighty Boosh skit on cbm, failed disco star having a breakdown and accidentally making the best music of his career, and a holiday camp kids entertainer who's thought "fuck it, these brats need some Krautrock intheir lives." Sometimes it's silly, often it's cramp, but mostly it's inspired and highly entertaining. » NIGHSHIFT MAG (U.K.)
