Cabaret competition
1st cabaret evening "22nd ROSTOCKER KOGGENZIEHER"
Thursday, 26.02.2026 Moderation: Fiete & Schiete
HENNING RUWE
"THE GOOD YEARS ARE OVER" . 20:00 h
Cabaret right up to the joke line
He actually wanted to write a really clever program. But then Julia Klöckner and Jens Spahn got in the way. So the chief prankster Henning Ruwe has given up his search for intelligent life on earth and is doing what he does best: Bringing his hilarious view of the world to the stage, elegantly packaged. He doesn't dwell on the things that everyone in the audience already knows, but puts his finger directly in the wound and adds satirical salt where necessary. In his 34th stage program, 3-year-old Henning Ruwe proves that numbers are not his thing, but sharp words and epileptic ideas are. With literary sophistication and full of self-irony, he embarks on a discussion-based resistance against a policy whose shamelessness has long since made us laugh.
A refreshing evening awaits the audience - likeable, funny and never at a loss for malice. Especially suitable for people with a sense of humor.
JULIA ALSHEIMER
"SEX IS MORE THAN JUST A NUMBER". 8:30 p.m.
Comedienne and singer
With disarming openness and an impressive density of punchlines, Julia Alsheimer leads her audience through the most curious corners of human closeness and interpersonal misunderstandings.
What does language reveal about our way of loving?
How do teenagers consume alcohol without getting a flag?
And why are some trends in the intimate sphere simply ... shall we say, historically questionable?
In between, the trained actress and musical singer enchants her audience with outrageous chansons that get under your skin and make you laugh at the same time.
Julia Alsheimer's new program -- clever, charming and wonderfully outrageous.
HEINZ KLEVER
"WHO'S CRAZY HERE!". 9:20 p.m.
Political cabaret with music
Heinz Klever was one of the living inventory of the Leipziger Pfeffermühle.
As a composer and lyricist, he works for the Academixer, the Funzel, the Central Kabarett, the Herkuleskeule, the Kiebitzsteiner, the Fettnäpfchen, the Oderhähne,
the Arche and the Eulenspiegel.
His current solo program WER IST HIER IRRE! Sketches, parodies and music!
Viewpoints on the situation! - Warning - you may laugh yourself sick. In addition, the 2G rules for political cabaret still apply. The acting is only skillful and peppered.
Born in 1955 in the Rhineland, Heinz Klever has lived in Berlin for a good 20 years. Before he made it there, he had to complete numerous interim stays. To harden up, he lived in Wuppertal, Cologne, Hanover, Lüneburg, Oberhausen, Düsseldorf, Remscheid, Hamburg, Schwerin and Leipzig, among other places. And since he not only had to live there, but also had to make a living, he played the entire classical and modern repertoire up and down at the respective theaters. Oh yes, he can also often be seen on television.
