Weimarer Kabarett - Goethe Zeiten, schlechte Zeiten

Peace reigns over all the peaks…? Not a chance! At Weimarer Kabarett, it's anything but quiet: here audiences laugh themselves silly over Faust I and Faust II. Bernard Liebermann and Thierry Gelloz track down the secrets of Privy Councillor Goethe - in a colourful, musical, and hilarious evening that compares his era with today.

One thing's clear: everything was better back then. In those days, tomorrow was still tomorrow and yesterday was yesterday - unimaginable now! Weimarer Kabarett poses the big questions: Who is the modern Goethe? Why did the Privy Councillor fall on deaf ears with Beethoven? What would impress the prince of poets more today - the artificial intelligence of machines or the natural stupidity of our fellow humans?

Two verbal acrobats tie their tongues in knots and stretch their funny bones: Weimar with wit, cabaret with classics, Goethe with gags. Lights on - or as Goethe himself said: "More light"!
