Claudia Bill - Premiere: Bill trifft Unbill

Claudia Bill has been performing at Theater fifty-fifty for nearly 30 years. Many loyal fans can retell stories from her very first programmes, while new audiences follow along with equal enthusiasm. Now comes her next show - a programme that gets under the skin of pessimists and grumps, because it finds the funny side of life's annoyances: ageing, know-it-alls, Franconia, dating, weight...

Claudia Bill brings her full comic talent to bear, sparring with her alter ego - the cunning Franconian character Marie Messingschlager - and a cast of figures teetering between delusion and absurdity. Taboos and social blunders hold an irresistible appeal; no hardship is sacred. For the trickiest topics, she turns to song, with Bill accompanying on piano.
