Luis aus Südtirol - Pfiati - Die Abschiedstour
"Pfiati"-Tour: The Last Applause
After over two decades on the cabaret and small arts stages, Luis aus Südtirol, alias Manfred Zöschg, bids farewell to his audience with a final grand tour. The "Pfiati"-Tour marks the conclusion of a unique stage career - and at the same time offers a one-time opportunity to experience the beloved South Tyrolean cabaret artist live one last time. Packed with: new numbers, tried and true classics, and plenty of stories from real life - funny, touching, and typical of Luis. The audience can look forward to a very personal program that includes reflections on his greatest moments as well as glimpses of what’s to come. An evening full of laughter, nostalgia, and surprises - perhaps even for Luis himself.
The Farewell
"I owe everything to my audience - really everything," says Manfred Zöschg. "'Pfiati' means for me not just 'goodbye', but 'take care of yourself'. And I say that from the bottom of my heart." He still feels comfortable on stage - but everything around it has simply become too exhausting at 67. So: it’s better to stop while it’s still fun. The last tour feels "like a mountain run without training - strenuous but with a view." And: it is also a thank you. To all who have accompanied him, understood, laughed, and listened.
The Book
The farewell tour is accompanied by the release of his first book, which will be published in autumn 2025 by Raetia Publishing. It offers deep insights into Luis's private life - with childhood memories, anecdotes, pranks, and of course, a lot of humor. He has particularly cherished the story of the legendary "Gold Find": a gilded lead bar, secretly buried in the garden, sparked childlike euphoria, neighborhood gossip - and to this day provides conversation material in the village. In addition to humorous memories, the book also tells of special challenges - such as his performance in New York, where Luis presented parts of his program in English - "without much pressure, but with a lot of heart."
The "Pfiati"-Tour is not just the end of an era - it is a celebration for all who have laughed, thought, and lived with Luis. Those who want to experience him live once more should take the opportunity. There will be no encore.
Luis aus Südtirol says: Pfiati. And thank you.
Hallo, ich bin Maya.
