Bodo Wartke

Wunderpunkt Abera Kadabera! Fine wordplay, surprising rhyme culture, and virtuosic piano playing – Bodo Wartke's seventh program offers entertaining musical cabaret and word-acrobatic tongue-twister slam. The entertainer and poet pits wonder against the power of habit, placing humor alongside old patterns. Lightness! – Why not? Bodo Wartke brings it to the Wunderpunkt! In his seventh piano cabaret program, the musician and cabaret artist presents himself as a storyteller who eavesdrops on the absurdly comical occurrences of everyday life with all its inconsistencies and condenses them in a double sense of the word. Bodo Wartke casts an exceptionally playful, linguistically and verbally acrobatic, dancing glance at the phenomena of our coexistence. In doing so, he draws from the rich trove of the German language and, with fine intuition, unearths many a linguistic treasure. Printer problems turn out to be an identity crisis of the technical device stuck in the wrong body. The 'egg hole' known from children's rhymes triggers a hair-raisingly abstruse and at the same time philosophical stream of consciousness in the sleep-drunk musician.
