In the organizer's words:
"Let's go to the park / and roll down the slope / or do you have a better idea / how we should face the madness of our time." In Funny van Dannen's songs and lyrics, the sensible and the nonsensical, the political and the private, the critical and the everyday are interwoven to the point of indistinguishability. Hence their depth and their closeness. They often deal, in the words of the Frankfurter Rundschau, "with people who bet on the wrong horse and afterwards ask themselves whether it was a horse at all." Hardly anyone is able to dissect German sensitivities as finely as the painter, writer and musician Funny van Dannen. Reason enough for Tom Kühnel and Jürgen Kuttner to prepare a musical revue from his work, which brings the madness of our time to itself.
