Eva Karl Faltermeier

Eva Karl Faltermeier is known for her sharp wit and distinctive style, which captivates audiences across Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Liechtenstein. In her third stage programme "Ding Dong", she remains true to form, sharing her observations about society and politics with her viewers. She draws material from her own background and life's twists - perfect fodder for moving from the personal to the universal.

Her stage persona confronts the manifold challenges of everyday life caught between impossible social norms and cultural rootedness; an emotional tangle that can provoke a sense of powerlessness. But this powerlessness is shared by many. To break free from it, Eva Karl Faltermeier constructs stories with humour. Her great art lies in presenting oddities and the most serious themes with a wink. Laughter as a coping strategy - over time, breakdowns, and goals; what is missing, what one has, and where it all should lead. In the end, the conviction remains that somehow everything is manageable. Nobody mentioned perfection.
