Putsch

What is the real state of democracy in our country? If the sharp-tongued cabaret artist Klara Milkowski has her way: bad. Because the "woke zeitgeist", "gender madness" and "left-wing, green, dirty politics" are destroying the Federal Republic. The single mother is a well-known television star and fills large halls with her program. But when her populist exaggerations become too much for the broadcaster, Klara loses her show. Meanwhile, she is celebrated on social media as a "martyr for freedom of opinion". The populist party "Unser Haus Deutschland" (UHD) sees particular potential in Klara and nominates her as its candidate for chancellor. What begins as a personal reckoning develops into a political avalanche that even her daughter Melli is unable to stop.

Pointed, exaggerated and frighteningly close to reality, the play shows with great humor what happens when politics and entertainment merge: democracy begins to totter.
