Book presentation Ecco Meineke

Ecco Meineke, a fixture on the cabaret scene for many years, was awarded the Bavarian Poetry Prize last year. Now his cabaret autobiography has been published! The musical part of his life would need another book...

In it, he talks about his childhood, how he ended up in Munich and how he got involved in the cabaret scene.
He describes the winding paths that finally led him to the ensemble of the Lach- und Schießgesellschaft, the many solo programs since then and how he came to write and sing the "Superperforator" song for the film "Der Schuh des Manitu". Over the years, he has written hundreds of texts, dramas, sketches, songs and a dozen full-length cabaret programs...

This lavishly illustrated volume is the first to offer a selection of his texts, which are interwoven with memories, anecdotes from his life on stage and the respective political backgrounds.

The "Süddeutsche Zeitung" writes in its review: "(It) seems far too short even these 160 pages, which can be read in one go and with great pleasure."
It becomes even more entertaining when Meineke reads, sings and plays live from his book.
