Jess Jochimsen - Of all good spirits

PREMIERE

Jess Jochimsen confronts the encroaching glaciation of the brain and heart with his very own mixture of clever political satire, deadly beautiful songs and screamingly funny slides.
"Have we taken leave of our senses?" That is probably the question that arises in view of the general situation. From Musk to Merz, we are witnessing the return of offended men and while we can watch the autocrats in the West and East shredding democracy in real time, the smallest grand coalition of all time is throwing a 90s party on credit. Was it really smart to elect someone as chancellor who proves almost daily that he can't do that? And capitalism, climate change and bachelor parties are still there too...
But because despair is no solution, the multi-award-winning author and cabaret artist shoulders his accordion, packs enough reason, solidarity and composure and prescribes optimism. After all, who or what exactly are these good spirits that are leaving us? And why all of them at once?
In his search for answers, Jochimsen wanders through suburbs and fairgrounds, pays homage to politeness and other forgotten virtues and promises an inspiring evening against the current impositions. Leaning back. Funny. And hopelessly confident.

An evening without railings.
Party like there's tomorrow!

Press: "Jochimsen is whimsical, poetic and observant. [...] And what he finds is like his program: tragedy and screamingly funny." (Frankfurter Rundschau)
