Lifeguard Schaluppke brings the FUNpool to Göttingen
On Friday, October 30, 2026, the APEX in Göttingen will transform into a highly unusual experience pool: Lifeguard Schaluppke presents his comedy program FUNpool. Starting at 8:15 PM, stand-up, cabaret, and plenty of chlorinated jokes are on the agenda.
When the edge of the pool becomes the stage
Behind the character Lifeguard Schaluppke is the Cologne comedian Robbi Pawlik. Since 2002, he has been providing a unique comedy atmosphere as Rudi Schaluppke. His humor combines character comedy, music, physical stage scenes, and direct interaction with the audience. No towel will stay dry – at most, the eyes from laughing too hard.
FUNpool: Shortage of skilled workers with a belly flop
In the new program, Schaluppke is searching for a new job after his long-standing swimming pool must undergo major renovations. Skilled workers are being sought everywhere, but the lifeguard brings one thing above all: an unmistakable stage presence and timing that even allows a delayed belly flop to land precisely.
The program humorously pokes fun at the swimming pool landscape, swimming rules, and the everyday madness between changing rooms, saunas, and diving boards. The audience can expect a mix of stand-up, music-comedy, audience interaction, and quirky everyday scenes.
A comedian with cult character
Robbi Pawlik has worked at the Cologne Opera and participated in formats such as Die Sendung mit der Maus and Käpt’n Blaubär. As Lifeguard Schaluppke, he has appeared in comedy and TV formats like NightWash, Quatsch Comedy Club, the NDR Talkshow, and various WDR and ProSieben productions. He has received several awards for his stage character.
Reviews highlight his mimetic strength, sense of rhythm, and the blend of music and character comedy. His audience reactions thrive on participatory moments, pointed observations, and the feeling of being in the middle of a completely crazy swimming pool shift.
Comedy evening at APEX Göttingen
The APEX has been one of Göttingen's established cultural venues since 1971, regularly offering cabaret, comedy, theater, music, and other stage formats. For the comedy evening with Lifeguard Schaluppke, a regular ticket costs 22 euros; reduced tickets are available for certain groups. The upper event room is only accessible via stairs.
Conclusion: Pack your towel, train your laugh muscles
Lifeguard Schaluppke promises an energetic comedy evening featuring quirky characters, musical interludes, pointed cabaret, and plenty of interaction. If you're in the mood for a laugh experience outside of ordinary stand-up routines, visit APEX Göttingen for a lifeguard who can make even the driest punchline roll. Secure tickets and dive live into the FUNpool.
