In the organizer's words:

He is the Dogfather. The dog chancellor. The man for all furs. And now he's back. Martin Rütter. Back at last. Finally live on tour again. But also finally in the truest sense of the word. Because his new live program SCHLUSS! AUS! marks the end of a long journey through the bizarre relationship biotope of man and dog. After more than 25 years and countless appearances on the major stages in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, the time has come. It's time for SCHLUSS! OFF! - the brand new live show and big farewell tour by and with Martin Rütter.

For the very last time, Germany's number 1 dog professional will be doing the really big walk round. For the very last time, the janitor of all dog kennels slams the unvarnished truth in front of our bowls. For the very last time, he takes us into the animal-human cabinet of curiosities. With SCHLUSS! OFF!
Martin Rütter raises the curtain on the final act, leaving no questions unanswered. He makes it clear to us why animal welfare is not the same as Tinder. He talks about his very personal encounter of the third kind - with an Irish Wolfhound. Or was it more the owner? He reveals that remorse can also really hurt. At least when listening. And especially in a restaurant. Martin Rütter reveals the secret of ringing barkers and couch potatoes. And why do visitors now bring rumen instead of peonies? Martin Rütter enlightens us. In his incomparable
way. With keen powers of observation and disarming self-irony. Because the Dogfather knows it very well: the final reckoning is at the end. And we all sit in the same basket.

SCHLUSS! AUS! is the last live program, the big farewell tour by and with the one and only true eminence grise of the local dog scene. SCHLUSS! AUS! by and with Martin Rütter. Mercilessly honest. Mercilessly analytical. And of course really funny again.

And, as we all know, the best comes at the end: On his very last live tour, Martin Rütter will donate 50 cents from every ticket sold to animal welfare. This will raise a total of €200,000.
