Thomas Schreckenberger - Irre sind menschlich

Often, when you read the news in the morning, you get the feeling that you're the only normal person in the world. Then you meet your neighbor and suddenly you're quite sure you're not!

Looking at your fellow humans, you can sometimes despair: crazed extremists threaten democracy, greedy profiteers destroy the environment, and participants in "The Farmer Seeks a Wife" endanger reason itself! The internet increasingly becomes a realm populated by people who make Hannibal Lecter look like a polite gentleman with somewhat questionable culinary preferences.

Many questions arise: Is the world one big madhouse? Why am I stuck in it too? And what can I do? Thomas Schreckenberger, awarded numerous prizes for cabaret and performance art (including the Baden-Württemberg Cabaret Prize and the Tuttlingen Crow), settles accounts with all the lunatics in politics, society, and everyday life.

Of course, well-known figures from the political and celebrity scene also appear on stage, which Thomas Schreckenberger performs as his characteristically flawless parodies. In the fight against the world's madness, humor helps-as the great Werner Finck once observed: "A smile is the most elegant way to show your teeth to your enemies!"
