How Berlin Is That?
Come on, this is a hoax, right? They haven't really made a puppet play out of Axolotl Roadkill? Oh. Theyhave. I'm in awe - the world's favourite cliché about Berlin just disappeared up its own arse.
Ah, that everyone in Berlin is doing puppet theatre.
But a puppet show about HH/AR is like a big custard cream biscuit/oreo cookie made of cliché, stuck together with the gunk they find under the seats on Easyjet planes ferrying in groups of party animals.
Oh, now I am curious -- what is the world's favourite cliché about Berlin then? ;-)

Or a Prinzenkeks for extra Germanicness.
