Comedy scandal
Luke Mockridge: Is scandalous comedian coming to Salzburg?
TV contracts canceled, appearance canceled: After the scandal about tasteless jokes about disabled people, Luke Mockridge's guest appearance in Salzburg is now also shaking. .
"There are people without legs and arms, you throw them into a pool and whoever drowns last wins." German comedian Luke Mockridge shot himself offside in his home country with anti-disability jokes like these. Following the incidents, the TV channel Sat 1 dropped his new show from its schedule and many event organizers cancelled his appearances. Mockridge was due to come to Salzburg on September 20 as part of his "Funny Times" tour. But will the event actually take place?
The fact is: the performance at Szene Salzburg is sold out. However, Mockridge is no longer listed in the program on the Szene website. A cancellation will not be confirmed to the "Krone", referring to the organizer Hoanzl. He passes the ball on to Mockridge's management. His German tour organizer did not respond to an inquiry. In short: everything points to a cancellation - even if nobody wants to say so openly (yet).
