Martina Brandl writes her own texts. And this one 15 months before the premiere! When you consider that an elephant cow is pregnant for 22 months, that's not so long. After all, something big is growing up. A whole evening full of new songs and stories. And the almost two-year break from touring has unexpectedly resulted in something even bigger! The congenial Kunstwerkstatt Rosengarten/Brandl has reinvented itself during the lockdown and the comedian, singer and writer Brandl is finally going on tour again in her original line-up after twelve years with her partner, the pianist, composer and arranger Martin Rosengarten. A small sensation!
The press writes: "Brandl is by far funnier and more quick-witted than many of her male colleagues." (Südkurier).
Nevertheless, there is no man bashing, bodyshaming, apple-slicing mothers or a number about the last prostate check-up in the 10th solo program of the TV-famous cabaret award winner and bestselling author. Instead, Ms. Brandl plays ukulele and thelevi, an instrument you've never seen before! Mr. Rosengarten is at the keys and loop machine. You'll laugh, maybe even be moved from time to time, and watch as they both effortlessly manage the balancing act between silliness and social criticism, art and commerce.
If you've read this far and are wondering what the hell Thelevi are: Buy a ticket you'll see that cabaret doesn't have to be preachy and comedy can have depth!
