Dresden, Germany
Herkuleskeule is one of Dresden's best-known political cabaret theatres, with a tradition stretching back to 1961. The ensemble is famous for sharp, satirical programmes that take aim at German politics and everyday life. The intimate stage seats a small audience, which gives the performances a distinctly direct, club-like feel.
