A Journey Around the World
We have put together an impressive selection of award-winning talents from different parts of the world in our program. The diversity and quality are truly remarkable. Here are some brief descriptions of the artists we would like to present:

The Flying Zuniga from Brazil:
This award-winning group of artists presents a breathtaking performance on the flying trapeze, being seen in Germany for the first time.

Duo Guilherme Sepuveda from Argentina:
A master of crossbow shooting, whose artistry is one of the rare performances still shown in circuses.

Hula-Hoop dancer Ashley-Sydney, this young artist is only 18 years old, but her performances are anything but ordinary.

Joaquim from Spain: A true master on the tightrope. Joaquim has enchanted audiences around the world with his captivating wire-walking performance. His acts are a perfect blend of elegance, suspense, and artistic skill.

Live orchestra of Circus Gebrüder Barelli:

Doors open: One hour before the start.

God – a mental meditation
How did Karl Rahner conceive the relationship between humans and God?
Reading, Discussion

Fri, October 11, 2024, 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM

120 years ago, the theologian and Jesuit Karl Rahner was born. With him, theological thinking entered modernity. He remained ever in awe. This is evident in the famous and challenging "Meditation on the Word God" in his work "Foundations of Faith". There he asks: "Does this word have a future?". We will hear what he said about it and discuss.

The ensemble The String Company was founded around the turn of the millennium from the Thuringian folk scene. The three founding members Reinhard Schwalbe (violin), Frank Truckenbrodt (guitar), and Lev Guzman (viola) performed together with other musicians at the monthly folk gatherings. Quickly, the idea for a joint ensemble matured that brings Russian music from the Usbekistan-born violist Lev Guzman, Klezmer, as well as Celtic folk songs and American swing and jazz to the stage. The trio made its debut with concerts in churches and at private celebrations.
In 2008, experienced double bassist and orchestral musician Friedemann Seifert-Henkel joined the band. Since 2014, the band's repertoire has further evolved with the singer Marion Minkus: Numerous vocal pieces now shape the ensemble's profile, with a focus on developing multi-part singing as well. In addition, the band was able to play more and more concerts and expand their reach across Germany. Meanwhile, the ensemble has become an integral part of the Thuringian folk and Klezmer scene, performing in Jewish communities and churches throughout Germany, and is a regular guest at the ACHAVA Festival Thuringia as well as the Jazz Mile Thuringia.

"In a fabulous live performance, the band offers a wonderful musical journey through the hits of Pink Floyd's most successful phase: from 'Meddle' (1971) to 'Dark Side of The Moon' (1973), 'Wish You Were Here', 'Animals', 'The Wall' (1979), The Division Bell (1994), as well as some other popular pieces. With musical excellence, excellent stage design, and great sound, Kings of Floyd captivate the audience and evoke the almost perfect illusion of a Pink Floyd concert."

Doors Open: 7:00 PM

Dear audience, the cabaret artist Thomas Reis has passed away.

Our friend, great colleague, and companion Thomas Reis passed away on Sunday, June 23, 2024, after a serious illness. Described as a "bizarre mixture of Kafka, Heine, and Gene Kelly" by DIE ZEIT, he received numerous cabaret awards for his uproariously funny, sharp social analyses, his admirable lightness with a sense of boundless black humor, and his brilliant eloquence, reaching a million-strong audience on stages throughout the German-speaking world and in the media.
On June 5, Thomas Reis bid farewell to his audience with a farewell performance at the Kölner Senftöpchen, where, in typical Thomas fashion, he addressed his critical health condition:
"Dying is not a beautiful death, but it doesn't happen that often, once, you can live with that. It's also not forever because how comforting it is often said in death notices: 'He hasn't died, just gone ahead...' So, he can already order a beer."
Our dear friend, loving father, revered and celebrated colleague Thomas Reis has gone ahead yesterday.
We are very sad to have lost him, relieved to know he is at rest, and grateful for the time we shared with him.

Unfortunately, the event has been canceled.

The main building of the State Kunsthalle Karlsruhe is closed for extensive renovation. However, significant parts of the collection are now visible to the public again – as guests at the ZKM | Karlsruhe.

The Kunsthalle showcases paintings and sculptures spanning from the late Middle Ages to the present on around 2000 sqm – a cross-section of the collection featuring popular masterpieces by Matthias Grünewald and Hans Baldung Grien, by Rembrandt, Rubens, and Chardin, by Cézanne, Gauguin, and Beckmann, Max Ernst, René Magritte, and Joan Miró, as well as works by Gerhard Richter, Pia Fries, and Karin Sander.

God created man, and man created content. What was just a photo is now content. Get up, shower, make content. Or vice versa. And then do it all over again. Life is a long calm river, filled to the top with content.

In his fourth solo program "Das bisschen Content," Friedemann Weise puts content at the center. And once again, he made it easy for himself. Because everything is content. His songs, his jokes, his moves, his stories. But content also raises questions: What is the plural of content? If someone creates content in the woods, but nobody watches, is it still content? Can you get pregnant from content? What does content have that I don't have? And most importantly: How long can one survive without content?

As Hans, the little hazelnut, once said: Only when the last person creates content will you realize that cabaret can sometimes be not bad at all. And until then: Content can do anything and Friedemann Weise even more so!

Friedemann Weise is a satirist, author, songwriter, cabaret artist, and comedian. He is nationally unknown for his appearances on the "heute show" and his regular radio contributions on WDR2, WDR5, and NDR-Info. Friedemann Weise has won multiple awards and tours throughout Germany all year round. Sometimes only with his mini-clone Friedemännchen, sometimes also with professional piano accompaniment.

Doors open at 7:00 PM

He doesn't give a damn. More accurately than with this edgy Bavarian saying, you can't describe the Munich-based comedian Harry G, who obviously has little interest in the famous "Bussi Bussi" and "Schickeria." Clear words, keen observations, quirky humor, a short fuse when it comes to social injustices, and fearlessness towards everything and everyone: Those who attend a show by Harry G must expect to be entertained in such a multifaceted and emotional way for over 90 minutes that they end up just as exhausted as after a brisk climb up the Wallberg. An evening with Harry G is not for resting, it is an evening full of energy and intensity that as a viewer one simply cannot and does not want to escape.

HoamStories - the title of the fourth program of the successful comedian Harry G, which will start in January 2024 - is another pun that should once again make it clear that Bavaria is much more than the well-known "Mia san Mia." Rather, it aims to illustrate the openness and zeitgeist that can be perfectly reconciled with Bavarian tradition and way of life. In HoamStories, Harry G turns his latest observations from his everyday life into the theme, where the audience often recognizes themselves embarrassingly. Harry G puts the "ordinary life" in such a light that there isn't a dry eye in the house. Almost always due to laughter, but also because some quirks are simply tear-inducing. Stories from and about Bavaria. HoamStories indeed.

What began with amusing videos in social media in 2013 has developed into an extraordinary stage success. In his programs 'Living with the Isarpreiß' (2014), '#HarrydieEhre' (2016), and HoamBoy (2020), Harry G enthralled his audience in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland as a contemporary ambassador of Bavarian way of life, in the Bavarian capital alone with 17 sold-out shows at the renowned Circus Krone. Starting in January 2024, Harry G continues this success story with his fourth program HoamStories.

Actually, everything happened by accident: First, Dominik "Dodokay" Kuhn taught Darth Vader, Barack Obama, the German Bundestag, and many others Swabian dialect on YouTube & Co., and then in 2014 he also ended up on stage with his own stand-up comedy show. Since then, the Dodokay train has been racing through all of Swabia worldwide and stopping at as many stations as possible.
Ten years of Dodokay live on stage - of course the new show "I bin's selber" celebrates the anniversary! Naturally, there will be brand new synchronizations on the brought screen, but the tour is also an opportunity to look back on ten years of being on stage. In addition to highlights from that time, Dodokay's famous infamous stand-ups will also provide answers to new burning questions that no one has asked: Why do Swabians usually say the opposite of what they think? What is the SV49 actually doing? Who is voicing all the characters in the videos? Is it Dodokay himself?
Anyone who knows Dodokay's show must see this one; those who don't know it, especially. In any case, with Dodokay three things are guaranteed: it will be funny, he speaks Swabian dialect, and it is himself.
Admission from 7:00 pm

A comedy by Winnie Abel, performed by the TAM Team in Alemannic dialect.
Directed by Emine Akman.

Have you ever sprinted heavily laden through the train station because the platform was changed last minute? Or wandered through a train with the wrong car order? Have you ever been stuck for hours with a broken engine on an open track - in the height of summer, with the air conditioning out? "Of course! That's typical train stuff!" you say? Fantastic! Because then you are well prepared for this exhilarating train adventure: The ICE 6948 will have to make an unscheduled stop, leaving you and the other passengers at a bleak provincial station. Without cell phone reception, without taxis, without a prospect of continuing the journey. Instead, you find out that among the passengers there might be a psychopath - and an incredibly funny chaos ensues. Your fellow travelers on this exciting train odyssey are: a colorful women's bowling club, a harried businesswoman, an eccentric conspiracy theorist, and a quirky motivation trainer.
Does that sound promising? Then get yourself a ticket and be there when it's time to say, "Thank you for traveling with Deutsche Bahn!" The audience will be engaged as fellow travelers in a humorous and uncomplicated way throughout the performance.

Doors and bar open 1 hour before the show starts.

Event Location
The flourishing traditional brewery from Freiburg has existed for over 150 years and has made a name for itself beyond the city limits with its diverse range of beers. In addition, the brewery's premises regularly host well-attended events and parties.

In 1865, Ludwig Ganter founded the brewery in the house Zum Kindlein Jesu. This building was previously inhabited for several years by the Dutch scholar Erasmus of Rotterdam. Ganter initially brewed with a small brewing system from the 18th century. Due to excellent sales, the brewery expanded.

Admission from 5:45 pm.

Already from 2004 to 2013, Rosenau, together with Theater Rampe, Theaterhaus, Literaturhaus, and Laboratorium, annually organized the "Viennese Week" festival. The idea was to focus on Vienna/Austria for a week and specifically invite cabaret artists, writers, authors, and theater productions from there to Stuttgart. The series "Wiener Blut" now picks up on this idea again. Throughout the year, various Austrian cabaret artists will present their programs at Rosenau: Social, political, and interpersonal topics are entertainingly brought to the stage in a cabaret style! And everything is a bit more biting, sinister, ironic, quirky, and often more poetic than from German territory.
The subscription consists of the following 6 events:
- 09.02.24 Benedikt Mitmannsgruber with "The strange case of Benedikt Mitmannsgruber"
- 04.04.24 Blonder Engel with "Songs that are funny and sometimes a bit sad, but that's okay"
- 19.04.24 Christine Teichmann with "Left right human rights"
- 11.09.24 Magda Leeb with "Pigging out"
- 04.10.24 Blözinger with "New Program"
- 23.10.24 Hosea Ratschiller with "HOSEA"

The Historix-Tour with Maurice LeMalheure R.I.P. and Maurice Rabenaas R.I.P.

As a young soldier under King Louis XIV of France, Henri LeMalheure once conquered Freiburg - but he has not yet recovered from his imminent death to this day. Travel back with him to the Vauban "fortress" and listen to his gripping stories, full of superstition and tragic entanglements. The only problem is: The spirit of his eternal rival Maurice also haunts the old fortress walls! Theater tour with two actors!

Meeting point: Entrance Schwabentorsteg (at Schwabentor)
Duration: Approx. 120 minutes

Exciting, informative and beautifully eerie! Thematically, the event-tour deals with the time between 1677 and 1745. On their way over the remains of Freiburg's French fortress, the brave participants will not only learn about the tragic fate of the two adversaries and their "object of desire", but also a lot of interesting facts about the French period of the Breisgau metropolitan area, about bastions and castles, and last but not least about the Sun King and his connection to the city. This event-tour holds many surprises.
