Philipp Scharrenberg - Verwirren ist menschlich

In the organizer's words:

Mindfuck' means confusion with a method. And the confusion is there. It haunts the socially deprived media and can be found on the green-washed supermarket shelves; where newspaper ducks used to swim, alternative truths now croak. How are we supposed to distinguish between fiction and faction? In the age of disinformation, we don't need anyone else to make fun of us - we do it ourselves. The main thing is for the Net to lead us astray! Philipp Scharrenberg doesn't believe in artificial intelligence - he prefers to make intelligent art. For thinking along. Because he is someone who looks closely. An am-scab nibbler, a tooth-feeler, somewhere between a child's head and an enlightener, who always asks: "Why?" As an obsessive-compulsive neurotic, he knows how society ticks and which buttons he has to press to make it fidget. With a lot of wit and heart and full physical exertion, he explores their mental aberrations and motives in order to bring clarity where there is confusion in the brain. In his fifth program, he is also supported by his great love: language. Rhyming, writing poetry, with songs, radio plays and stand-up
he shows how difficult it is to be sure of your own opinion today. Not a 'them up there' cabaret, but a 'us down here' cabaret, awarded the German Cabaret Prize 2023. A 'mindfuck' - but tender.

Venue of the event

The Capitol in Bremerhaven is a popular venue for political cabaret. Well-known names from the satire and cabaret scene are regularly on the program here. However, the Capitol doesn't just see itself as a stage, but wants to offer more than just a show.

The "Arbeitnehmerkammer kulturell" has been organizing a varied theater programme in Bremerhaven since 1988 and thus makes an important contribution to a colourful and sustainable urban development. Since 1993, the Capitol has played an important role as a forum for artistic, political, intercultural and interpersonal exchange. In short: Capitol is a place for everyone! The diversity of people and lifestyles that come together here is also reflected in the program of events. Every year from January to May and from September to December, a wide variety of artists, satirists and comedians take to the stage to share their world view with the audience in a humorous or serious, but always intelligent and entertaining way. The "SATIRICA", a festival that has long enjoyed great popularity among satire fans, also takes place in November.

The Capitol thrives on the creative spirit of the artists and people who come and go here. Come along and be inspired!
