In the organizer's words:

Spiced up...
...is the cabaret review every two months at the Altenberg Center in Oberhausen. Three different cabaret chefs from the region give their satirical take on the latest events:
Benjamin Eisenberg (political cabaret, Bottrop)
Christian Hirdes (musiKabarett-poetiComedy, Bochum)
Matthias Reuter (piano cabaret, Oberhausen)
result in a mixture of spices for every comedic taste. The humorous course menu is garnished with an exquisite guest from the belle cuisine of the cabaret scene.

Joining us in January 2026:

Ludger Kazmierczak

Ludger Kazmierczak is known to most people primarily through his voice, namely from radio, because in his serious life he runs the ARD radio office in the Netherlands on behalf of WDR. He constantly reports from Holland and the border region. Sporadically, he also works as a television correspondent, for example for live broadcasts on WDR television and for reports on the German TV channel Erste as well as for Lokalzeit from Duisburg. But with a degree in theater, film and television studies, German and Scandinavian studies, he also enjoyed the classic comedy training - with the difference that he went through with it and did not "successfully drop out", as is so often said. As a journalist, he naturally has good powers of observation, and as they always say: the stories are on the street! But not only there. Ludger Kazmierczak also finds them at the bakery, on the train, at the hairdresser, in the DIY store or in the sex store. In his fourth solo program "Worse! Geht immer!", the man from Kleve once again guides his audience through the absurdities of everyday life. As befits a man from the Lower Rhine region, he naturally goes from 't Höcksken to 't Stöcksken. "Wonderful nonsense" writes the Rheinische Post. "Radio man inspires with satire", finds the NRZ.
