Michael Klink (born August 25, 1968 in Nürtingen ) is a German comedian and dubious dialect artist .

Career

Michael Klink grew up in Neuffen . He graduated from the Albert Schäffle Gymnasium in Nürtingen and first studied German and history in Schwäbisch Gmünd and then at the Eberhards Karls University in Tübingen. After his first stage experience in 1997, he performed part-time. In 2002 he turned his hobby into a profession. Under the stage name Linkmichel, the Swabian Schwertgosch, Michael Klink appears as a comedian and cabaret artist mainly in Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria. He also supports students in project work on the subjects of cabaret, comedy and performing arts.

Appearances

LinkMichel appears in the Ländle and neighboring areas, as it mainly caricatures these people in Swabian dialect . Exaggerated, but always true in essence, LinkMichel takes on the omnipresent "human element" without stopping at his own inadequacies. LinkMichel finds ideas for his programs as a father of three daughters and as a pet owner in the immediate vicinity of his family and on the Swabian Alb. In 2000 he went on tour with the "AllGemheiten" program. Since then he has put together a new program every year. In the 2018 "Charm Offensive" program, he describes the search for a partner of a fifty-year-old man who has just separated.

LinkMichel had TV appearances on SWR and guest performances in the Quatsch Comedy Club in Berlin. At the beginning of his career he performed in a duet with a pianist, more recently mostly solo. His punch lines consist mostly of unpredictable twists and turns and unexpected, hilarious logic.
