Mr. Schmickler please!
In his new program, it is called: "Mr. Schmickler please!", and he gladly responds to this call: with his mixture of spoken word, lyrical poems, and expressive singing, he continues to rant about social ills and injustices in this world.
WILFRIED SCHMICKLER wants to entertain seriously, cheerfully grumble, uplift for the whole evening, with cascades of text, sardonic tirades, and mocking songs.
With his call for more tolerance and compassion, he will continue to contribute to the "friendliness of the world"!
WILFRIED SCHMICKLER has been awarded the 4 most important cabaret awards: PRIX PANTHEON, GERMAN CABARET AWARD, GERMAN SMALL ARTS AWARD, and the SALZBURG BULL! He was on the WDR-Mitternachtsspitzen ("Stop it, Mr. Becker") for almost 30 years and every Monday just before 11 he presents the "Monday Question" on WDR 2.
Press reviews: "It is the quieter moments in which Wilfried Schmickler truly shines. Those in which he leads polished sentences with outstanding precision, where he is sharp and poetic at the same time. When he tells stories with satirical wit or packs societal criticism into verses of exquisite elegance beyond the stringing together of buzzwords, the entire brilliance of a cabaret performer is revealed" (Bonner Generalanzeiger). "Wilfried Schmickler has been part of the premier league of political cabaret performers in the country for decades as a virtuoso word spinner!" (LVZ Leipzig, appearance at the Schauspielhaus in 2016). Schmickler is among the best that cabaret has to offer. It is sharp and clever, highly relevant, and quite malicious. That's how cabaret should be (AZ Mainz). "A verbal tiger with drastic verbal force: Schmickler amazed with kindness, was foaming and quiet, subtle, punning, and cutting." (Aachener Zeitung).
