Festival der Travestie in Ahlen - Maria Crohn & friends 2026

Festival der Travestie - A show that stops the world for a few hours. Directed and hosted by the incomparable Maria Crohn.

Welcome to an evening so intense, so beautiful, and so extraordinary that you forget everything else. Festival der Travestie is more than just a show. It is an experience. A firework of emotions. A tribute to the art of transformation, to life itself - colorful, loud, honest, and boundless.

What awaits you? Everything. And more!

When the lights come up and the curtain rises, a journey begins through worlds where everything seems possible. Where a man becomes a diva, a song gives you goosebumps, and a single glance captivates the entire audience. Live singing meets sharp comedy, parody meets genuine feeling, glitter meets depth.

Here people laugh, marvel, are moved - and sometimes comforted. Because drag is not just entertainment. It is a mirror of society, a valve for everything we often dare not say, and at the same time a celebration of life in all its facets.

The artists on stage are masters of illusion, transformation artists with soul. Each carries an entire universe within - and brings it to the stage with charm, wit, and breathtaking presence. Here talent meets attitude, professionalism meets passion.

Whether powerful ballads, cheeky banter, hilariously funny characters, or moving monologues - everything is handmade, performed live, and with all the heart. Nothing is hidden here, but much is transformed. And that is exactly what creates the magic.

And in the center of it all: Maria Crohn. She is not just a host, but the heart and soul of the festival. With her experience, sharp tongue, big heart, and unmistakable style, she guides the evening - sometimes moving, sometimes hilarious, always authentic. A stage personality without compromise.
