die apokalyptischen tänzerin*nen - Ha Ha Haltung - A Satirical Kick Upwards

There is nothing to laugh about, so we laugh ourselves to death. An evening between belly laughs and serious satire - true to the word's meaning, you can expect a colourful basket of sweet and sour fruits. Or those that taste wonderful but then trigger allergic reactions? Prepare yourself for diverse surprise guests and discursive humour. In a room brilliantly furnished by the agency for material stories, lively accompanied on piano and with our Stuttgart-based Konstantin Wecker, Peter Luttringer on guitar, we search for connections between humour and politics.

Beyond a rich offering of performing arts, there are deep insights with guests from politics and science:

16.06.: Ricarda Lang (Member of Bundestag), Alex Maier (Lord Mayor of Göppingen), Cassis Kilian (anthropologist, NoJoke Goethe University Frankfurt)

22.06.: Erwin Köhler (Member of State Parliament Baden-Württemberg), Sara Dahme (Stuttgart City Councillor), Simone Rafael (freelance journalist specialising in digital extremism and network politics)

23.06.: Maxime Van Velzen (Green Youth Mannheim), Holger Marcks (Machine Against the Rage / Network against online hate and disinformation, Institute for Democracy and Civil Society)

Besides us, the performance is also sweetened by Peter Luttringer on guitar, Beate Klose on grand piano, Athanasios Lampropoulos behind the wheel of an electric Porsche, Jule Lotte Bröcker behind a mask, Hannah Liya and Sophia Sadzakov behind standardised boxes, Mayha Suaysom drawing on sticky notes in the room, and two rotating special guests behind rotating props.
It becomes politically humorous also with guests from politics and science, each evening different, each evening new.
