Claus von Wagner - Projekt Equilibrium

Remember when we took democracy so much for granted that "casting your vote" meant: staying silent for four years after the election? Those days are gone.

Democracy is under pressure, something has gone out of balance. The political world in motion - it can make your head spin. We stand firm on the ground of the constitution, but somehow it doesn't feel quite as stable anymore.

"Projekt Equilibrium" is a programme about the search for balance in a world that has come unhinged - a satirical, furious dance on the edge of apocalypse. Claus von Wagner's latest show merges the tradition of American stand-up comedy with topics that frankly shouldn't be funny at all - yet words like debt brake, special assets, climate crisis, inheritance tax reform, and inequality suddenly become oddly entertaining.
