Hagen Rether: LIEBE in Fulda

Hagen Rether, the Romanian-born German political cabaret artist and musician, brings his acclaimed solo show "Liebe" to Fulda. Known for his biting satire and masterful piano accompaniment, Rether's performances are a blend of sharp political commentary and musical improvisation. He often begins his show by eating a cup of yoghurt, setting an unexpectedly casual tone before diving into topics ranging from international politics to religion, media, and consumerism.

Throughout the evening, Rether alternates between monologue and piano, modifying song selection and tempo to match the subject at hand. His targets have included the Catholic Church, George W. Bush, and German novelist Günter Grass, as well as pop singer Herbert Grönemeyer. With a career spanning over two decades and numerous awards, Rether's "Liebe" show is constantly updated to reflect contemporary issues, ensuring a fresh and provocative experience for each audience.
