JÜRGEN BECKER - DEINE DISCO

History in slices - how music makes politics

Without the revolutionary invention of the electric guitar, history would have taken a different course: the 1968ers had Jimy Hendrix, the hippies Janis Joplin and Woodstock, the squatters Ton Steine Scherben, the peace movement Bots & BAP, the women's movement Ina Deter, the punks Patti Smith. It is the soundtrack and its resonance in society that makes a movement successful. Today, the climate movement has no sound of its own and is in danger of losing ground; the earth is constantly getting hotter. A catastrophe that Jürgen Becker analyzes perfectly with "Deine Disco". A cabaret program like no other: politics, records, protest and punchlines are mixed live on stage as a rousing radio show, you dive satirically deep into the sound files of the moving youth and in the end even save the future: Follow the Science. But don't forget the emotions!

It was not for nothing that Joseph Beuys replied to the question of whether art could change the world: "Only with art!"
