The untimely contemporary... Hanns Dieter Hüsch on his 100th birthday

For almost 60 years, he has shaped cabaret in the German-speaking world like no other: Hanns Dieter Hüsch. He is an observer of everyday humanity, a commentator on current affairs, a political-philosophical spirit who tries to understand the world. Hüsch explains how he became a cabaret artist: "You just have to grow up in the Lower Rhine region", because "the Niederrheiner knows nothing, but can explain everything."

An evening full of poetry, jazz and black sheep.

The performers are:
Renate Obermaier and Heinzl Spagl - recitation

and the Hagenbuch Trio:
Thomas Wenk - piano and cassette recorder
Sebastian König - drums
Andreas Schauder - double bass
