12 Dead Chickens: When the Devil Laughs at Youthful Sins
Erik Rastetter arrives in Hell – and there is no cozy wellness oasis waiting for him, but a highly entertaining accountability test. In 12 Dead Chickens, the Sandkorn Theater in Karlsruhe transforms into a cabaret court between guardian angels, the devil, and the crucial question: What do a burning embankment, a vampire in a tulip bed, and a dozen dead chickens have in common?
A Cabaret Egg Dance Between Truth and Good Lies
The answer is provided by Erik Rastetter with stories from his early years that are hair-raising, loving, disturbing, and repeatedly extremely funny. Whether the memories actually happened that way remains pleasantly doubtful. After all, every good anecdote has a little secret – and some apparently even have feathers.
Rastetter juxtaposes his personal retrospective with current themes. This creates a lively stand-up and cabaret evening with satirical commentary, pointed storytelling, and plenty of winks. The timing is precise, the scenes change with speed, and the audience's reaction is likely to oscillate between disbelief and hearty laughter.
Guardian Angel vs. Devil: The Onstage Constellation with Bite
While Erik Rastetter just wants to tell his crazy stories in peace, the guardian angel and the devil argue over fiction and truthfulness. Michael Postweiler takes on the role of the guardian angel, while Michelle Brubach embodies the devil. Directed by Hendrik van Ryk.
This constellation adds extra interaction and theatrical energy to the evening. Music, slapstick, and satirical commentary meet classic cabaret mechanics: an everyday memory grows into an absurd stage scene, a seemingly harmless punchline tilts into the bizarre, and suddenly the entire youth biography is under hellish observation.
Comedy Atmosphere at the Sandkorn Theater
The Sandkorn Theater & More provides the perfect setting for this laughter experience. The intimate studio stage directs the focus directly on facial expressions, timing, and stage presence. Here, punchlines don’t dissipate somewhere in the haze of the hall, but land close to the audience – ideally right in the diaphragm.
Those who enjoy cabaret with absurd stories, musical moments, and slapstick will experience an evening with a personal touch. 12 Dead Chickens combines autobiographical storytelling with theater, comedy, and satirical observation.
Conclusion: An Evening Between Hell, Humor, and Chicken Coop
Visitors can expect a varied cabaret evening with Erik Rastetter, Michael Postweiler, and Michelle Brubach, unusual memories, musical accents, and a healthy dose of dark humor. Anyone looking for pointed stories, surprising twists, and a comedy atmosphere beyond the ordinary should experience this cabaret egg dance live at Sandkorn.
