Profile

Christian Lindemann is an international show expert, Cirque du Soleil® world star, performance lecturer and author.

From rags to riches - The life of Christian Lindemann writes his story from a street artist to the world's stages.

He has been an artist with a passion for 30 years to entertain and fascinate other people. With his worldwide success with Cirque du Soleil®, he was the first German to conquer the top of the international comedy show acts and became the “King of Pickpockets”. Christian Lindemann was always up to all stages of life, including those on the street, where even as a high school graduate he worked hard to win people over, get their attention and even sell more than just his performance, but also products. 10 years later he filled halls with 5,000 people in Las Vegas and has thousands of fans worldwide. The passion for artistic performance, which began at the age of 12, has turned into an internationally prominent artist, lecturer and expert in sovereignty, self-confidence and performance. The stage is his home, in the role of a show star, as well as a very entertaining speaker who passes on his knowledge from “Showtime” life.

“You have to be your own most important critic, but above all your biggest fan!”
