Otto - Geboren um zu blödeln

The East Frisian has been on stage for an incredible 50 years, delighting audiences with his anarchic, silly humor. Many Otto sketches, songs, rhymes and sounds have long been part of the collective memory, have become cultural assets and are quoted by heart by adults and children alike. At this big comedy get-together, the stars of the scene pay tribute to Otto and his timeless classics. The comedy party pulls out all the stops: the most popular sketches are reinterpreted on stage, films show the highlights from 50 years, and of course there is also lots of music. Bully Herbig, Bülent Ceylan, Jürgen von der Lippe, Ralf Schmitz, Sascha Grammel, Max Giermann and Cosma Shiva Hagen are among those taking part. The Friesenjungs, the Spider Murphy Gang, Erste Allgemeine Verunsicherung, Wolfgang Ambros and Ingrid Thurnher will provide plenty of music.

The Corporation

Since the late 18th century American legal decision that the business corporation organizational model is legally a person, it has become a dominant economic, political and social force around the globe.

Furthermore, we see the profound threat this psychopath has for our world and our future, but also how the people with courage, intelligence and determination can do to stop it.
