Uwe Steimle - Nu! - KEEN GETUE, KEEN GEMACHE...
Haus des Gastes Blaue Kugel, Cunewalde, Germany
Education without heart is no education at all. Watch out - after the great spelling reform, "BILD-DUNG" may be next (a wordplay on Bildung = education and Bild = tabloid image). There's a system behind it: only the ignorant can be truly exploited.
"NU!" is the new show in which folk actor and cabaret artist Uwe Steimle makes his demand: the language of Germans is German - Article 1 of the Basic Law! He takes the audience along his own educational journey - from Tintin's dog Snowy, through the sorcerer's apprentice, to sharp-eyed observations on German politics. As Markus Söder recently put it: "After the flood comes the drought". By now, in Germany, you can barely tell the cabinet from the cabaret. The CDU campaigns in election year 2025 with the slogan: "We think ahead". Steimle keeps thinking. The bridge in Dresden didn't collapse. It just went down. How we became what we are becoming.
With his dry wit and quiet irony, Uwe Steimle has built a loyal following. Let yourself be drawn in again by the wizard from the East, who manages like few others to put his finger on the many wounds of the German East-West divide - sharp-tongued and charming at once. New, endearing and wonderfully odd stories from Uwe Steimle, always driven by the desire to build bridges.
