Michael Tsokos brings the dark side to light

22/09/2025 written by Anja

In Zurich and Basel, the star forensic scientist reveals the world behind crime scene clues.

Michael Tsokos is a forensic pathologist at Charité Berlin, bestselling author and sought-after expert in the media. He knows the stories that never appear in police reports. In his live shows, he opens a window into a world where every lead counts - and every detail can make the difference between life and death.

Clues that don't lie

On stage, Tsokos talks about cases that show the reality of crime in all its severity. He explains how tiny clues can convict perpetrators, how autopsies reveal secrets and why forensic work often provides more information than any confession. He precisely and vividly combines specialist knowledge with real stories that get under your skin.

Between science and the abyss

Tsokos is not only a medical doctor, but also the author of numerous true crime bestsellers. His books such as «Zersetzt» and «Abgetrennt» captivate millions of readers. On stage, he amplifies this effect: sober science meets the unspeakable, presented with the intensity of a man who has spent years investigating the abyss of human nature.

Live in Zurich and Basel

Tsokos will be on stage in Zurich on November 29, 2026 and in Basel on November 30. Two evenings that go deeper than any series or book. A live experience that provides insights into a world that otherwise remains behind closed doors.

True Crime also available to listen to

If you don't want to wait until the live events, you can already experience Michael Tsokos in the podcast. In «Dr. Tsokos - Dem Tod auf der Spur», he guides you through real cases and lets you take part in the moments when forensic medicine provides the decisive clue. An audio journey into the depths of crime.
