"We woke up at 5:00 a.m. to the noise of explosions. This is how the stories of February 24 began for most Ukrainians. At that moment, our lives changed forever. We don’t know how long it will take, who will return home, who will stay alive, and what the price for our right to freedom will be. We did not choose this war, but we must win it."

"Nobody Died Today" is a documentary theater performance featuring interviews with Ukrainian volunteers, military personnel, and cultural workers, as well as personal stories from the performers. The piece is a living documentary theater that continually evolves. Teatr Nafta continues to live and work in the contested Kharkiv. Ongoing events in Ukraine are repeatedly integrated into the piece, making it a window into reality. The group has had to make several cast changes, as some actors were conscripted into the military or volunteered.

The piece paints a current picture of life in Kharkiv. It tells stories of people who, despite everything, do not give up their values and hopes. Let us give them our attention and our solidarity.

Admission: 7:00 p.m.

NIMM MICH ernst

Stand Up Comedy & Tragedy

Whether one is allowed to make jokes about any topic has been hotly debated in recent years. But the much more interesting question is actually, is it also allowed to not make jokes sometimes? How much emotional range can a comedy program handle?

Helene Bockhorst is trying it out - and daring to walk the tightrope between humor and depth. In her genre-defying one-woman freak show, she showcases herself. Step right up, center stage - take a seat in the most refreshing whirlwind of emotions since feelings existed! Only here will you see the strongest woman in the world, the woman with the underbelly, and the high wire act of German comedy. She balances on the fine line between secondhand embarrassment and enlightenment. Jumps from the trapeze of good cheer and trusts that the audience will catch her. And expertly throws knives into the hearts of the spectators.

Have no fear, there will be much laughter and celebration of life this evening. But there will also be storytelling, amazement, and shared suffering. Because in the end, we all just want one thing: to be loved, just as we are. In moments of happiness as well as melancholy. And why should an artist settle for anything less.

äöü - Geh zur Ruh´

Are you tired? A warm invitation to the festival on exhaustion. Yours, mine, that of the German healthcare system, and the worn-out utopias of past decades.
There, where until the mid-1990s state care was still provided for the exhausted, with foot and sun baths, forest walks, healing waters, hay wraps, and theater on prescription, today we find commercial spa landscapes and rehabilitation clinics. The cure has been abolished. In its place has come exhaustion. How can we face it? What practices can we learn together to not chase after strength, but to establish a preventative practice? "Geh zur Ruh’" is a theater evening of pause and revolution, between staying in bed and healing demonstration.

I am tired. That's okay. Lie down and rest. I will lick your wounds. I will wrap you in plaster. I will listen to you. I will build you a cave. We will lie down in there.
That is where we want to rest.

„Ach, du fröhliche... “ das Weihnachtsprogramm

"„Oh, You Merry...” The Christmas Program

Christmas should be merry... and contemplative. But above all, beautiful. And precisely because we want it so much, we stress ourselves out - "Oh" - to the point of being unconscious, experiencing stress, shopping madness, and getting together for traditional family quarrels.
René Steinberg says: Enough! The motto of his new Christmas program is "make Christmas great again". And the way to get there is through laughter. Laughter about ourselves, our quirks, habits (how do you eat a domino stone?), about fellow human beings who definitely do not celebrate the festival of love in the supermarket parking lot, or about seemingly small lights that may illuminate their windows Las Vegas-style for that very reason?
Let's laugh about it - especially with other people together - because as usual, Steinberg interacts a lot with his audience; so that you can have a lovely evening together even before the festival.
Maybe a bit like the shepherds once did, because the angel didn't announce any Payback points to them, but above all: a great joy! So, back to the joyful roots of the Christmas festival; get your tickets, relax, and then: "Let us be happy and merry!"

Short Bio:
René Steinberg is very well known to many people purely by his voice. For 20 years, he has been doing satire, glosses, and comedy on the radio - legendary on WDR2 are "the von der Leyens", "Sarko de Funes", or the "Crime Scene with Till, Herbert, and Udo". On WDR5, he was the host and moderator of various live shows on the "Entertainment on the Weekend". Tens of thousands of visitors saw the trained Germanist at the WDR stage shows "Lachen Live", where he was on the road in NRW with changing companions for now 4 programs.
With his first solo program, the self-proclaimed power griller and BVB fan won several cabaret awards right off the bat from 2012 and was nominated, among other things, at the cabaret festival of the Wühlmice in Berlin. With his fourth solo program "Voluntary Forward! Whoever laughs, opens their mouth", he further develops his very own style: interactive, fast, profound, people-friendly, and with a humor that, upon closer inspection, sometimes reveals itself as biting mockery. The Christmas program "Oh, You Merry..." is the successor to the successful Christmas program "Crazy is Festive".
"Steinberg simply spreads good mood and pure entertainment"

Armada Theater - LUMINA

a multimedia puppet and object theater for everyone aged 12 and up

LUMINA is a voice-controlled artificial intelligence (AI) embedded in an ordinary desk lamp. It learns quickly, is your best friend, can drive a car, manage your daily life, and generate images. It is so similar to us that we can hardly distinguish between humans and machines.

It is being developed by two people who are trying to program LUMINA's algorithms to derive the greatest benefit and profit from it.

In a mix of puppet and object theater with live camera and live music, Armada Theater explores the learning behavior behind an AI. And raises the question: What does it mean to be human and to remain so in an increasingly digitalized world?

Simone Dede Ayivi - Unauthorized und Unverschämt

The installation Unauthorized und Unverschämt looks at German history from a Black perspective: we take a look at the post-war period and then move forward together to the beginnings of the recent Black movement. To this end, we illuminate the biographies of those who were born in the post-war years as children of Black US soldiers and white German mothers.

We interviewed a generation and met wonderful people who speak about their upbringing, their struggles, and afrodeutsche life realities. Their stories are accompanied and shaped by exclusion and the bureaucratic racism of the Federal Republic. But they are also, and above all: stories of resistance and community building.

Simone Dede Ayivi & accomplices delve into the archives for Unauthorized und Unverschämt and illuminate the racism and sexism of the FRG – which is also responsible for separating families and taking children away from their mothers, adopting them into the USA, or placing them in homes. They research in Mannheim, Frankfurt, and Berlin into the societal treatment of the so-called "occupation children" and search for traces left in official records. Because to understand current debates about identity and racism within and outside Black communities in Germany, we must also know this part of our history.

Really, these are hard times. Crises, wars, disasters - one could easily lose hope. But not with Florian Hacke. He sifts through the glass container of emotions for the last remnants of humanity and boldly proclaims to us: "Everything will be fine." Isn't that beautiful? And before you ask again, "But how?" - Probably not at all. But wait, do not lose courage: If you have no solution, simply refuse the task! Is the happy end still a desirable concept? Nobody knows when the end will come, so do we have to be happy all the time? That sounds stressful. Perhaps it is time to revolutionize our idea of happiness. Whether it's the bird in hand or the bird on the roof: birds should not be touched at all. Instead of patiently hoping for a better tomorrow, let's wipe away the idea of a happy ending and face the facts: The most beautiful moment is always now.

Abdelkarim - Plan Z - jetzt will er´s wissen!

Do you have to let go of life dreams that just won't come true at some point? Realistically speaking, yes, but thankfully Abdelkarim doesn't dwell on such realism for long.

With his new program "Plan Z," he shows us that the alphabet has 26 letters for a reason. Where Plan B fails miserably, Plan Z is just starting to warm up. From getting a six-pack in record time to world peace for everyone: When Abdelkarim tackles our problems, everything seems possible, even for him. The often absurd everyday life with its small and large issues that we all want to get a handle on is closely examined. The Moroccan peace dove points out the wounds, but she also has band-aids with her. 26 of them.

Is this now comedy or cabaret? Honestly, we don’t know, but it is above all funny, honest, typically subtle, and when necessary, it can hit hard.
"Plan Z" is Abdelkarim's fourth full-length solo program, starting October 2024. His last tour was sold out in many places well in advance. So secure your tickets quickly now!

Abdelkarim is a popular regular on TV: heute-show, Die Anstalt, Nuhr im Ersten, Amazons Lol, Let’s Dance, and many more. His internet clips like "Ok Ciao – Hallo?" went viral millions of times. The native of Bielefeld and resident of Duisburg has received numerous awards, including the German Television Award, the Golden Camera, the Bavarian Cabaret Award, and the Jury Prize of the Wühlmäuse Small Arts Festival.

Édith Voges Nana Tchuinang - Das Treffen der Königinnen

Thrown into a game situation, two performers face off in an unusual duel: the Cameroonian director Édith Nana and the German performer Kerstin Pohle embody powerful, historical queens – one African, the other Western.
But the “Meeting of the Queens” turns out to be much more than a simple trump game. With each round, it becomes clear that this is not just about the search for cultural role models, but that the hidden rules of the system are also put to the test: patriarchal structures, capitalist concepts, and questions of socially assigned role distributions and cultural appropriation.

With a mix of theater, game, music, and video art, we encounter bold and inspiring female figures on stage and in history, whom the two artists bring to life. However, the game increasingly gets caught in its own rules.
What role models shape our identity? Whose stories are told? Who writes the rules? And whose game is this, anyway?

The play is the third and final part of Nana's queens trilogy, following “The Last Queen” and “The Last Queen 2.” Accompanied by Cameroonian Mvet player François ALIMA and German video artist Nils Voges (sputnic), we embark on a journey that is both multimedia and philosophical, questioning traditions, role models, and concepts of identity.

Premiere on February 21, 2025, at Ringlokschuppen Ruhr.
Second performance on February 22, 2025, at Ringlokschuppen Ruhr.
Further performances at Theater im Depot, Dortmund.

A project by Édith Voges Nana Tchuinang in coproduction with Ringlokschuppen Ruhr and Theater im Depot.

Daniel Ernesto Müller - Hippe Sippe

When the family you live in was formed - who was there first, what came along, and is it ever complete? And who or what belongs to it at all? Dads, the tree, moms, educators, more parents, siblings, aunt, your closest friend, the doorbell, sadness, quarrels, the phone, the happy guinea pig?
In HIPPE SIPPE, four performers decide to be family. A family where something is often forgotten, where some people exist in doubles, and others not at all. Who is there for whom and who is still missing - depends entirely on who you ask. The kin creatures stroke and envy each other, feed and bury each other, miss and annoy each other. Some we only hear, others almost crush us. Beyond conventions, HIPPE SIPPE engages with community, queerness, diversity, and self-determination.

Bernd Begemann

Bernd Begemann has invented all of this.
No, seriously, Bernd has been releasing music since the 80s and has inspired a lot of people
left and right since then.
But that’s not the point right now. In this new song “Scheiße Mann echt jetzt..?!?” it’s about a man who wants to feel the right way but just can’t manage it.
You can find it a bit funny, you can find it very sad, or both, just like
life itself. This first single is a taste of a big new album called “Milieu,” which will be released in spring 2024.
It’s probably not the best song from this collection, but it’s solid fun and thus
practically superior to anything the so-called competition is up to.
Anyone who still has a problem with this whole thing should discuss it directly with Bernd Begemann.
He plays around 100 concerts a year, and each one lasts at least
three hours, but it will seem infinitely longer to you. Afterwards, he hands out free
autograph cards of himself and signs them with lacquer pens in the colors of silver, gold,
and copper.

Wiedersehn macht Freude

Hennes Bender is OUT AND ABOUT AGAIN. And the most senior German-speaking stand-up pioneer has not lost any of his form: The Pottfather of German Comedy returns to the stage in a practical space-saving vertical format.

Equipped with the latest experiences from recent years, the showbiz survivor shows that recent parking lot performances or presentations in front of plexiglass audiences could not faze him thanks to his 30 years of stage experience.
In his new and ninth solo program, he does not look back, but vehemently looks forward and processes all of this in REUNION BRINGS JOY. The title of his new program is meant to be understood as an appeal to his audience, because finally he can playfully put on and take off his mask and nerves in front of real people, to laugh heartily together about the madness of life.
The most important questions of today are also not left unanswered: What to do if there really is a squirrel invasion? Does only hoarded toilet paper and/or sunflower oil help then? And what do real hamsters actually say about it? Will humans ever learn how to ride escalators properly?

Streaming, podcasting, or working from home won't help here – only coming by, sitting down, and immersing yourself in the entertainment will help: The comedy comeback that has been long-awaited. Even Hennes Bender himself. Being there is everything when it’s time again to say: REUNION BRINGS JOY.

Markus Barth - Pures Gold

The biggest advantage in the life of a standup comedian? No matter what happens to you, every streak of happiness and every disaster - eventually, it will turn into a spectacular stage act. Pure gold, indeed!
And so Markus Barth brings out the shovel in his new live show and digs for the nuggets.

The master of maximal-minimalist stand-up ("One stage, one microphone - I leave everything else to Helene Fischer") digs everywhere it glitters - but also where it hurts. He plows through his own biography, tidies up current events, and even looks into the future for his audience ("At what age do I actually have to walk around in racing bike shoes through German wine towns?").
In the meantime, he appears to chat harmlessly with the audience, spares no one (especially not himself), and effortlessly manages the balancing act between pain and punchline. Because: Comedy is tragedy plus time. Well, and a few gags don't hurt either. But believe us: Markus Barth has plenty of those in his bag.

P.S.: The last show of this tour takes place on February 27, 27 at the Gloria in Cologne. After that, Markus Barth will be off for a while. On a treasure hunt, so to speak. Better take a look beforehand!

Die orangene Gefahr

What happens when 17 million orange climate refugees roll into Germany in their caravans due to rising sea levels? Are the Germans then ready to welcome the much-loved Dutch?

„Die orangene Gefahr – Die Holländer kommen“ is the first German-language program by Dutch comedian Patrick Nederkoorn. The premiere took place in spring 2022 at the Haus der Springmaus in Bonn. It is an amusing and bitterly funny confrontation with the peculiarities of our two nations and the topic of migration in climate change. The program was nominated for the Prix Pantheon and won the Obernburger Mühlstein, the Comedian Jackpot, the Silver Reinheim Satire Lion, and the Second Prize of the Tuttlinger Krähe.

Hitverdächtig – Der musikalische Jahresrückblick

Can you seriously earn a doctorate in pop music? Yes! And what do you do with it? Comedy and cabaret. Dr. Pop is the doctor of all things musical. He practices on the radio, TV, online, and on stage. He treats with music samples and quirky, yet completely true music facts. Did you know that termites eat through wood twice as fast when they listen to heavy metal? Or that there is a Barry White effect in evolutionary theory? The deeper the male's voice, the greater the chances of mating. This applies to both humans and koalas.

In Dr. Pop's live show, music plays that can save a party, a relationship, or the motivation to exercise. Whether it’s pop, rock, classical, schlager, jazz, hip-hop, or rap, Dr. Pop launches familiar yet also unknown samples from music history. And by the end of the show, everyone in the audience knows how to enrich their own life a little more with music.

In “Hitverdächtig – Der musikalische Jahresrückblick,” Dr. Pop dissects the musical highs and lows of the year. Which music shaped the year? Why did a concert by Beyoncé increase inflation in Sweden? What new, helpful music studies were released? And why is it that, to this day, a Christmas song is the best-selling song in music history? Dr. Pop has the right hit for every question!

Hitverdächtig – The comedy and knowledge show for everyone who loves music or wants to start loving it.
