Satire with Warmth: 'Kreislers Cold Feet' Takes Bochum into Chanson, Bite, and Spirit

A trio brings Georg Kreislers relentlessly clever songs into the present: Veronika Nickl, Mickey Neher, and Jörg Siebenhaar draw a biographical-musical trip on the stage – tender, sarcastic, politically awake. An evening that condenses theatrical atmosphere and stage experience into a pointed homage.

Scenography, Light, Sound: A Precise Concert of Signs

Reduced scenography, focused light, pointed accents from the drums – the production relies on clarity. The piano carries the chanson lines with fine dynamics, while Nickl's acting artistry makes the texts vivid: a single breath is enough, and irony tilts into melancholy. Thus, that Kreislersche ambivalence between laughter and shivering arises.

Dramaturgy with Bite: From Cabaret Tone to Contemporary Diagnosis

The selection of songs spans a spectrum through Kreislers' work – from the black-humored couplet to the reflective ballad. Transitions are choreographed like cinematic cuts: short moderations, then pure music again. Hannah Arendt impulses flash up when power, morality, and conformity are dissected – without a finger-pointing attitude, with precise directorial stance.

Acting Meets Chanson: Three Voices, One Pulse

Nickl modulates between satire and empathy, Neher phrasing, percussive, always narrative, Siebenhaar as the musical backbone. This trio chemistry creates a dense acoustic space in which Kreislers' wordplay remains sharp and simultaneously shimmers warmly – audience reaction: concentrated listening, then hearty laughter.

Why Kreisler Now?

Kreisler's gallows humor meets a present that acknowledges contradictions. The performance shows how his songs – between cabaret, theater, and music – brilliantly reflect current discourses about freedom, opportunism, and language. An evening that demonstrates stance and takes entertainment seriously.
