Friedemann Weise

Satire can do anything. Except die!
"When satire dies, man has only four years to live," said Albert Einstein
said to his cat with a coffee in his hand. "But if - to paraphrase Tucholsky - satire
can do anything," purred the cat, "then it can also die."
"I'll know how to prevent that, as true as I am the winner of the German Cabaret Award
prize," exclaimed Friedemann Weise, who was watching this scene on a regional express
on the way to a gig in Dingsbums. He finally knew the name of his fifth
solo program should be called: Satire looking for a home. An awkward play on words - just good enough to avoid attracting attention in the local cabaret scene, but above all bad enough to bring a smile to Friedemann Weise's face.
The Cologne-based author, satirist and music comedian now sets out to show in two times 50 minutes of satire why
minutes of satire to show why it's worth living.
As difficult as this undertaking may be, together with his guitar, a screen
and his human mini-clone Friedemännchen, he will succeed. And you can watch him
watch him do it!
