Think of Stuttgart 21 and you'll see the old Greek had a point. Urban Priol reaches the same conclusion every time he sits down to write his press release just before the deadline.\n\nHis current show is like a river in constant motion. With eagle eyes, the cabaret artist tracks the steady flow of political events - from the stagnant waters of the grand coalition, through the meandering trickle of the traffic-light government, to the intellectual shallows of the far-right swamp. Priol is always on the pulse: spontaneous and razor-sharp, he often lands his punchlines faster than his own shadow can think. He rumbles, thunders and flashes, letting many things shine in a clear, bright light - like a cleansing storm. Boundlessly, the master of parody ploughs through the night, cuts through complex connections and turns murky whirlpools into pure spring water. He throws himself into the waves of daily madness, dives into the depths of the absurd, mocks with relish and enjoys it every bit as much as his audience.\n\n"Im Fluss." is like a rafting trip - racing over drops and past boulders through wild, foaming rapids. Come along! Follow the motto of another great Greek philosopher, Costa Cordalis: "Get in the boat tonight!" You won't regret it.\n\nDramaturgy: Dr. Navina Lamminger
