‘Everything under control!?’ | Cabaret ScherzGrenze – Farewell Tour

In a co-production between the ‘Tonne’ in Laupen and the Kellertheater in Murten, a group that was initially unnamed took to the stage in the spring of 1999 with ‘Danebenwirkungen’ – an ‘attempt at cabaret for our healthcare system’ which, as it soon became apparent, proved highly popular with audiences. With ‘Viel Lern um nichts’, the ensemble – now known as the ‘ScherzGrenze’ cabaret – followed up ‘live from the de-education ward’ and firmly established itself on the scene with this equally topical theme.

After twenty-six years and seven successful shows, it is now time to come full circle. With its eighth and final production, the ‘ScherzGrenze’ cabaret bids farewell to its audience.

‘Alles im Griff!?’ once again takes the healthcare system – still a highly topical issue – to task. Some elements from the first show can be incorporated without losing their relevance, restaged and given new musical arrangements. New material has been added, including material from other thematic areas. Throughout it all, the audience can look forward to what has always set ‘ScherzGrenze’ apart: topical relevance, situational comedy, linguistic wit, wordplay and plenty of music.
