Magdeburg, Germany
A family-run political cabaret in Magdeburg, led by the Hengstmann brothers. The ensemble has been staging sharp satirical programmes since the 1990s, tackling current affairs and German society with wit and a distinctly East German perspective. The intimate venue seats a small audience, which gives the performances a direct, almost conspiratorial feel.
The Hengstmann brothers present their 21st cabaret programme, a satirical take on politics and contemporary life delivered with their signature family humour.
A cabaret programme that weaves political satire with comedy and music. The Eckermann family becomes a lens for exploring boundaries, domestic conflict, and where the laughter ends.
Open stage at the cabaret "...nach Hengstmanns" for all talents - singers, dancers, and more. Free admission.
