Stefan Waghubinger

“There used to be fewer candles,” observes cabaret artist Stefan Waghubinger on his birthday. And as he struggles to catch his breath after blowing them out, he realizes that he used to say “back then” less often.

So what happens next when you feel that “my inner child could be my grandchild by now”? Stefan Waghubinger explores this question in his sixth stage show. Amid cake crumbs, a smartphone, and balloons, he talks about failure, hope, and what really matters in the end. After all, as the old St. Paul knew: “In the end, faith, hope, and love remain.”

But until then, there’s still quite a bit to figure out:
Should I sign up for the gym or make an appointment with the orthopedist right away?
Should I work through that old list of New Year’s resolutions or just cross them off?
And how many tax returns are there actually left until retirement?

With keen observation and delightfully offbeat humor, Stefan Waghubinger unfolds his perspective on life’s absurdities. An evening about the joys of old age and the art of lying. Satirical and full of the will to survive.
