Ergolding Premiere

Die Schlagzeugmafia: Beat Entertainment
Die Schlagzeugmafia are five clever gangsters who, during their rapid raids through percussive sound worlds, spread neither fear nor terror - quite the opposite: here they spin sticks, not dirty tricks.
With masterful craftsmanship, charming wit and astonishing creativity, every beat offensive from this band becomes a foolproof coup. Here professionals are at work: virtuoso drummers and captivating entertainers rolled into one. Five humorous performers who always have the next ace up their sleeve after every astounding surprise moment. Die Schlagzeugmafia performs in various formats: from 10-minute pop concerts to full-length shows like "Backstreet Noise".
A glance at their record shows these mafiosi are long past their petty crime days. Since 2010 they've let their charm and sticks do the talking. Award winners of the BW Small Arts Prize 2015 and the Niederstätter surPrize 2018, entertainers before millions of television viewers in the final of the RTL show "Die Puppenstars" and collaborators with artist Joris at Echo Show 2016. Clients from politics (Federal Ministry of Economics), industry (BASF, Porsche, Mercedes Benz, Otto), culture (lit.Cologne, New Pop Festival) and media (SWR, Arte, RTL) are left with one enthusiastic admission at the end: Mission accomplished!

A Drum-Based Gangster Satire Full of Surprises
In the full-length show format of Die Schlagzeugmafia, the audience becomes both witness and accomplice.
Although the mafiosi always try to maintain their laid-back gangster facade, it quickly becomes clear that not everything runs smoothly in the mafia business. How could it be otherwise? With five drummers, everyone wants to set the beat.
Who ultimately holds all the strings? Will their disguise as pizza makers be exposed? How do you build a fluc from three drums?
