Yu-Box Balkanizer Stand up Musical

In the organizer's words:

Musician, comedian, author and presenter of the cult radio show "Balkanizer" is back on tour: with his new stand-up program "Yu-Box". As a storyteller with a guitar, Danko Rabrenović finds a new form that lies somewhere between concert, reading, stand-up and cabaret. In his witty yet profound stage program, he laughs, sings and reflects on topics that have long preoccupied him: language, exile, identity, culture shocks, feelings of home, nationalism, integration, migration background and much more. Musically, Rabrenović draws on the rich musical heritage of the former Yugoslavia and, as a "living jukebox", fulfills the audience's musical wishes.

Danko Rabrenović was born in Zagreb, grew up in Belgrade and lived with his parents in Beijing for three years as a child. He came to Germany shortly after the outbreak of the Yugoslavian war. For eleven years, he hosted the cult radio show 'Balkanizer' on WDR Funkhaus Europa. He has published two books to date, 'Der Balkanizer. A Yugo in Germany' and 'Herzlich willkommencić. Homeland stories from the Balkanizer' (DuMont). Rabrenović is also the singer and guitarist of the ska-punk band Trovači.
"The Balkanizer tells of a life between two homelands and charmingly holds a mirror up to our faces. Witty and profound." (Radio Fritz)

"The author and musician Danko Rabrenović has filled a gap with the story of his integration in Germany." (taz)
