WDR 5 Kabarettfest Bielefeld

In the organizer's words:

With Nils Heinrich, Kirsten Fuchs, Matthias Reuter and Onkel Fisch
Presented by Hennes Bender

When comedian Hennes Bender and his guests invite you to the Kabarettfest Bielefeld, there will be laughter and reflection. WDR 5 presents the cabaret evening at Zweischlingen in Bielefeld.

Once again this year, Hennes Bender is delighted to welcome a top-class ensemble to the stage. Among them is comedian and author Nils Heinrich. In his current program "Junger Gebrauchter", Heinrich navigates through the first half of his life with laconic wit, musing on wrinkles, demands and fantasies - and skilfully playing the role of the witty observer.

Kirsten Fuchs, author and stage voice from Berlin, explores the strange life between children and motherhood in her latest work "Muttermund tut Wahrheit kund". She reflects on the world of parents, politics and poetry with a lightness that goes deeper than you might expect at first laugh.

Matthias Reuter combines cabaret with piano on stage: in his new program "Ich bin noch gut" he juggles with language, music and existential questions - an intellectual and musical delight.

The likeable-chaotic duo ONKeL fISCH has been delivering "action cabaret" with biting satirical humor, original sketches and witty songs since 1994. The world between crises and commerce is ruthlessly pummeled and turned upside down until it says: "Hope - a serving suggestion".
