Bio
Berlin’s Biggest Export.
Australia’s Adopted Star.
Boozier than Oktoberfest, more drive than a Volkswagen and more sausage than a bratwurst convention, I am Hans — Germany's proudest (and unquestionably hottest) export.
International superstar. Sex symbol. Accordion virtuoso. Berlin boy wonder. Fashion icon. Human glitter bomb. For over a decade I've been dazzling audiences around the world with my unique blend of award-winning comedy, live music and spectacular cabaret. I've performed to everyone from Prime Ministers to Princesses. Page boys to paupers.
In 2018 I won the hearts of over 16 million Americans as a breakout star on NBC's America's Got Talent.
The Americans became so obsessed they invited me back for America's Got Talent: The Champions, where I competed against the greatest Got Talent acts from around the world before making the Grand Final. Officially one of the world's Top 10 entertainers. No really. Google it. I'll wait.
Meanwhile, back in Australia, I’ve turned festivals like the Adelaide Fringe upside down in a pair of sequinned hot pants. My show Hans: Like A German won the Adelaide Fringe Best Cabaret Award before touring nationally to sold-out audiences. Then came Haus of Hans: Disco Spektakulär, which became the highest-selling comedy cabaret show at the Adelaide Fringe, the highest-grossing South Australian production at the festival and earned me a second consecutive Best Cabaret Award. Apparently the judges have excellent taste.
Since then I've continued packing theatres, festivals and concert halls across the country with my gloriously over-the-top productions in national tours of Hans: Disco Spektakulär in 2023 and Hans: Young, Fun & 21 (celebrating my 21st birthday) in 2025. I even teamed up with a symphony orchestra for my show A Night at the Symph-Honey in 2022. Lets just say honey, if you need an OTT show, I’m your boy!!
Television keeps inviting me back too. You may have spotted me on America's Got Talent, America's Got Talent: The Champions, Sunrise, The Morning Show, The Today Show, Today Extra, Studio 10, ABC News Breakfast, The Good Friday Appeal, Carols in the Domain, SA Weekender and plenty more.
Whether I'm headlining a theatre, hosting a gala, performing with a symphony orchestra, entertaining at a corporate event or DJing until your HR department starts getting nervous, one thing is guaranteed... You'll laugh. You'll dance. You'll question several life choices.
Willkommen to the Haus of Hans.
