WDR 5 Kabarettfest Köln

In the run-up to Christmas, Nessi Tausendschön invites you to a satirical prelude to the coming holidays. Together with her award-winning guests Lars Reichow, Matthias Reuter, Kai Magnus Sting and Anka Zink, she brings the year to a humorous close.

Music cabaret artist Matthias Reuter provides the best sound and fine satirical points. Where politics and fellow human beings are becoming increasingly hysterical, Reuter relies on calm, lots of humor and is in top form on his piano.

Kai Magnus Sting also offers a cabaret treat: the linguistic acrobat from the Ruhr region loves to tell stories - especially rousingly funny ones. He talks about everyday situations, rituals and celebrations, such as visiting the family at Christmas, in an eloquent and funny way.

Lars Reichow also talks about personal and interpersonal matters. In his current program, he deals with the "ME" and invites you to a musical and cabaret entertainment course on how to deal with complacency and self-absorption among people.

Host Nessi Tausendschön also welcomes cabaret artist Anka Zink. The Cologne-based actress presents situations in which you think: "Oops. Just gone well again!" It's about the tension between safety and risk, between natural hazards insurance and caravans, between the weather app and the option of simply looking out of the window.
