Chris Boettcher - "Baby Boomer" - Music Comedy by the Author of "10 Meter geh'" — Alte Turnhalle, Leutershausen

They had a great life - they grew up when Germany was at its best. Their world was rosy and full of optimism: the Quelle catalogue, ZDF-Hitparade, flared trousers and Pril flower stickers on the kitchen wall, a bath only on Saturdays and meat once a week. Now they can have meat seven times a day, cruise the world's oceans on an AIDA ship whenever they like - and still aren't happy. Or are they?

They're on the verge of retirement, or already deep into it. And on top of that, they're - of course - to blame for everything!! Who? The Baby Boomers! Chris Boettcher is one of them. He has plenty to say about his generation, because it has never been more in the spotlight than it is today. Who's going to pay their pensions? And should they really give up regular trips to Dubai and long restaurant dinners just because Generation X, Y and Z only wants to work 35 hours a week? Hardly seems fair, does it?

Get a glimpse into a world where the only thing showing positive growth curves is the prostate! The author of beloved radio comedies like Lothar & Franz (Bayern 3), former morning singer on Antenne Bayern, creator of the Oktoberfest hit "10 Meter geh'" and internet favourites like "In der Pubertät" - Chris Boettcher maps out the strange and wonderful world of the Baby Boomers. A comedy show about Germany's largest generation: people who once queued for a phone box and now have TikTok accounts. If modern developments like artificial intelligence make you uneasy, or you'd rather wallow in the good old days when even rotary-dial phones came with fabric covers - this show is for you.
