ROBERTO CAPITONI – Italiener leben länger

In the organizer's words:

Italians live longer ... except with concrete shoes

Anniversary comedy show in 4D: see, hear, feel, laugh!

He has been performing on German stages since April 1, 1981. So it's high time for an anniversary program, because Roberto celebrated his 40th stage anniversary in 2021. In this very personal comedic journey through time, he performs his favorite numbers and classics from the previous 7 solo programs. Roberto Capitoni is lively stand-up physical-visual comedy in 4D: see, hear, feel, laugh!

His not entirely serious biography "From Punk to Comedian", which has been published as a book, provides the framework for his anniversary program. Because one thing is clear: Roberto without music? Unthinkable! His first musical encounters were with his sister's Beatles singles, afternoons after kindergarten at his parents' music chest, the moon landing in 1969 on the black and white TV and the next stage in music on his brother's tape recorder.

Until punk discovered him in 1977 and he became the drummer in a band. Learn all about his time as a stagehand for Queen, AC/DC, Tina Turner ... and the backstage stories of many world stars. Experience at first hand the story of how he became a comedian after attending a punk concert in Stuttgart at the end of 1980.

He decides spontaneously which acts he will perform that evening. When you have so much great material at your disposal, you don't want to limit yourself to just a few stories. Roberto takes an all-round approach: his childhood as an Italo-Swabian in Isny or his daughter's teenage years. Not everything used to be better, everything used to be different, very different. A journey through 60 years of Roberto and 40 years of comedy that you won't forget in a hurry. 100% pure entertainment!

Because as his godfather Uncle Luigi always says: "Italians live longer ... except with concrete shoes."
