Hamburger Sprechwerk

A Bavarian plays Valentin, a woman from Brandenburg has to as well. What do you do when the Bavarian stage partner is sick and the only replacement you can get is an actress from Brandenburg? Valentin in the Brandenburg dialect? - That'll never work! Heike Feist (from Neuruppin) and Andreas Nickl (from Munich) tell the story of the scrawny comedian who was pessimistic, on principle. Before every stage performance, he trembles with fear of forgetting his lines. The passionate hypochondriac - "Not being sick at all isn't healthy either!" - dislikes traveling, especially for performances, and absolutely not by car! He considers the new technological marvel to be far too fast - something could happen. Nevertheless, Karl Valentin became one of the most famous and beloved of his profession to this day. And because that's the case, it's not over yet, not even for the woman from Brandenburg and the Bavarian...

Komödie von Konstanze Ullmer eine Eigenproduktion des Hamburger Sprechwerks der Reihe „Wortgefechte“ Uraufführung   Mit: Jasmin Buterfas, Iris Faber, Andrea Jolly, Joachim Liesert Regie: Konstanze Ullmer   Moral war gestern. Heute ist Punk. Was passiert, wenn der jugendliche Idealismus auf die Realität der Lebensmitte trifft? „Die Insurgentinnen“ erzählt die Geschichte von drei Frauen, die beschließen, dass es für die Revolution nie zu spät ist – und zwischen Alltag und Altersvorsorge eine klandestine Zelle gründen. Wofür haben wir mit zwanzig eigentlich gebrannt? Wo ist der Idealismus geblieben? Und was zum Teufel hindert uns daran, die Träume einfach jetzt, ein paar Jahrzehnte später, umzusetzen? Mit Zeitverzögerung sozusagen? Die Insurgentinnen Andrea, Jasmin und Iris stellen sich genau diese Fragen. Ihre Antwort ist radikal: „Lass es uns einfach tun!“ Kurzerhand gründen sie eine kleine revolutionäre Zelle. Ihr taktischer Vorteil ist die totale Unscheinbarkeit. Wer verdächtigt schon drei mittel- bis spätalte Frauen plus einen verängstigten Joachim?   In einer Welt, in der ohnehin alles zu spät scheint, erlauben sich die vier Konspirierenden plötzlich alles. Sie entdecken die Freiheiten des radikalen Nonkonformismus und erklären dem braven Alltag den Krieg. Das Stück ist eine schwarzhumorige Abrechnung mit verpassten Chancen und ein Plädoyer für den späten Aufbruch. Denn eines ist klar: Moral war gestern. Heute ist Punk.   Das Stück ist eine Uraufführung und wurde dem Ensemble auf den Leib geschrieben.   Gefördert durch die Behörde für Kultur und Medien Hamburg.         Kartenpreise: VVK: 21,60 €, ermäßigt 13,90 € AK: 23 €, ermäßigt 15 €   Mi 26.08.26 um 20 Uhr Premiere Fr 28.08.26 um 20 Uhr Sa 29.08.26 um 20 Uhr So 30.08.26 um 18 Uhr Fr 11.09.26 um 20 Uhr Fr 09.10.26 um 20 Uhr Sa 10.10.26 um 20 Uhr

The Zuckerschweine are probably Hamburg's funniest improvisational theater group. And "a piece of Hamburg culture," as the Hamburg Journal once called them. Enjoy an evening full of surprises - with a guarantee of laughter. Promised. They are fast, shrill and unpredictable: The daring impro players go on stage without knowing what will happen. They have no text, no props, no director. Scenes are created on the spur of the moment according to the audience's specifications, and they only exist once. Improvisational theater is pure theater. Theater without compromise, theater for the moment. Live and unabashed. And always not quite serious. Since January 2014, the impro combo has been performing regularly every first Thursday of the month at the Hamburger Sprechwerk. The specialty of the Zuckerschweine is their incomparable impro show with an extra portion of music. And at regular intervals they invite other impro players to join them: Zuckerschweine [&] Friends! Two-time Hamburg Impro-Master, a regularly sold-out Hamburger Sprechwerk, performances in countless German cities from Berlin to Darmstadt, from Kiel to Halle and at NDR - the Zuckerschweine look back on a moving history with over 20 years of stage experience. It all began in the then Mont Marthe in Eppendorf and in Geesthacht and Lüneburg. This was followed by almost ten years in the legendary Foolsgarden in Schanze, until the Zuckerschweine pitched their impro tents in the Hamburger Sprechwerk. Fortunately!
