Alex Kristan - 50 Shades of Schmäh
5/21/2025 at 8:00 PM / Graz

50 SHADES OF SCHMÄH

Alex Kristan has turned 50, or as the optimist within him says: "The first third of life is over." And because the thirst for action is still greater than the nocturnal urge to urinate, he takes this "round" as an opportunity to treat himself to a new solo program. Because when one suddenly finds themselves in the 50+ target group as a so-called Best Ager, only humor can help against the lead in the legs and the silver in the hair.

Supposedly, 50 is the new 30. Or is that only true for the local area? Even if 10 PM becomes the new midnight, the new skin care still doesn't have to be Voltaren instead of Nivea. It still pays off to buy long-life milk. Making diet plans, dyeing hair, whitening teeth, all of that is for pop-up seniors who see crowdfunding as a detox cure. His motto, on the other hand, is: "being sensible is like being dead, but before" and brings back the cheeky kid.

Exactly at that pivotal point in life, where the balance lies between looking well-groomed and being well taken care of, one asks oneself if everything really was better in the past and if so, why not? Shortsightedness is now compensated with foresight, and as long as the cake is more expensive than the candles on it, one is not old anyway.

Alex Kristan's alter egos naturally accompany him on this journey and are there to provide advice and assistance when it comes to the truly essential questions in the life of a man supposedly in his best years. It's a start-up into a new phase of life, where gout or truth is at stake.

And the truth is, he is 42 net, so exclusive of VAT. Aging is a very beautiful thing. Especially considering the alternative.

Klaus Eckel - Wer langsam spricht dem glaubt man nicht
6/13/2025 at 8:00 PM / Graz

Klaus Eckel is the German autobahn among cabaret artists. Unfortunately, he doesn't know any speed limits.
However, in 2023, the hyperactive wordsmith finally took a break from the parking lot of life and enjoyed a 9-month timeout! Doing nothing for the duration of a pregnancy! Completely free from the pandemic! And this should be a high achiever? Well, if everyone did the same! Countless punchlines have piled up. And punchlines are like dogs with full bladders. They just have to come out.

And that's why he's going back on tour. The brand-new, freshly baked version of his stadium-ready breakthrough program: Slow Speakers Aren't Believed.

Jedermann Reloaded 2.0
6/25/2025 at 8:00 PM / Graz

Philipp Hochmair is Jedermann. In a passionate feat, he slips into all roles and turns Hugo von Hofmannsthal's play into a polyphonic monologue. A dialogue with two microphones. One for Jedermann and one for the others. His Jedermann is a rock star. Driven by guitar riffs and experimental sounds from the band Die Elektrohand Gottes and Kurt Razelli, Philipp Hochmair transforms the 100-year-old mystery play into an apocalyptic speak-concert.

"The story of the life and death of the rich man" becomes an intense overall experience and makes Jedermann recognizable as a contemporary who burns in his insatiable greed for money and intoxication. The theme is timeless and eternally valid: "What remains of my life when it comes to dying?"

Started as an experiment at the Hamburg Thalia Theater in 2013, he and his band, "Die Elektrohand Gottes," have since further developed the performance. Work in Progress. Spontaneous guest appearances by Patricia Aulitzky, Ulrike Beimpold, or Johannes Silberschneider underscore the idea of the jam session and continuously reopen the concept of the monological structure. Highlights of the engagement included performances at the Vienna Burgtheater and the benefit concert at St. Stephen's Cathedral in the fall of 2018.

"My first encounter with Jedermann in Salzburg as a young spectator was disappointing. The event character remained foreign to me. I remained alone with my questions, with the riddle of Jedermann. This irritation led to the desire to turn the cumbersome theater spectacle into a light-footed monologue. In 2013, through the encounter with Tobias Herzz Hallbauer over his Alexander Moissi project, the band 'Die Elektrohand Gottes' was founded. We wanted to create a special listening experience to get even closer to Jedermann's thoughts and feelings. Also to the lyrics, to the sound, to this special language. An intimate insight emerged, a journey into Jedermann's mind. And while Hofmannsthal wanted to make the present visible in the past, our interpretation, in the provocative attitude of a rock concert, brings out the ephemeral in the present." (Philipp Hochmair)

The long-term intensive engagement with Hofmannsthal's original text enabled Philipp Hochmair to step in overnight for the ailing Tobias Moretti in the summer of 2018 and - unanimously acclaimed by press and audience - to take on the role of "Jedermann" at the Salzburg Festival.

In the summer of 2024, Philipp Hochmair celebrated a celebrated "Jedermann Comeback" again in the lead role on the Cathedral Square in Salzburg and laid the foundation for the upcoming concerts with "Jedermann Reloaded 2.0" at Burg Clam.

Michael Mittermeier - FLASHBACK - Die Rückkehr der Zukunft
6/27/2025 at 8:00 PM / Graz

After almost four decades of comedy touring, Mittermeier is going where he has never been before: into the future. As long as it still exists! But how to get there? In the 80s, one would have taken a car. Typical. But how do we go there today? Are time travels even possible? Yep, he's done it!

The solution lay in the basement: Mittermeier's great-grandfather was actually an inventor, some kind of Bavarian Oppenheimer. And over a hundred years ago, he built a time machine. The contraption then stood in the grandparents' basement for decades and didn't work. It was always said to be a prototype for a solar heating system. When in reality, the battery was just dead. But now we can get going! Start time: 2024. Propulsion: Comedy. Fuel: Humor. Michl, energy!

Traveling alone, however, is less fun, which is why we will travel together. Together into the future! Of course, in transitional jackets. And since we are already there, we might as well take a look back at the past. There was supposedly a lot going on there, from what one hears. The key is to laugh together. No matter what time.

FLASHBACK! I know what you will have done next summer...

Christina Stürmer - MTV Unplugged
6/29/2025 at 8:00 PM / Graz

Christina was the first artist to ignore her Starmania victory. She did this by covering a song in the finale that, while a powerful love anthem, did not showcase her singing talent victoriously according to the jury's understanding. Regardless, lifestyle came before fame.

Christina was the first artist who, despite consciously giving up this opportunity, immediately released her own number-one single. Fame and lifestyle went hand in hand.

Christina was the first artist to introduce political tones into the pop segment and released a song inspired by the Iraq War called "Mama Ana Ahabak" (Arabic: Mama, I love you). Taking a stand and still hitting number one? No problem.

Christina was the first artist who no longer wanted to be called Christl Stürmer, but rather Christina Stürmer. That's called sovereignty.

Christina Stürmer, by the way, was the first artist (among all artists) to be nominated for the Austrian Amadeus Music Award twenty times and won it eleven times. That's also called sovereignty, because as you know...

... Christina is the first artist who in her career as a rock-pop musician in Austria released exclusively seven number-one albums. Okay, one number two album. It was intentional - because lifestyle and fame need to have edges added here and there. But she has enough of them - edges and corners and authenticity and anyway... because...

Christina Stürmer is the first female artist in the German-speaking region to be invited by MTV to record an album. That speaks volumes about lifestyle, decency, stance, fame, unfame, and all the journalistic blah blah blah that could be brought up now.

MTV UNPLUGGED:
The "MTV Unplugged" concert series was launched in 1989 and is considered a badge of honor in the music scene. Acts like Nirvana, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam, Neil Young, Oasis, and many more have already played their hits in acoustic versions in a small setting.

CHRISTINA:
"At 11 years old, like everyone my age, I celebrated Nirvana's 'MTV Unplugged in New York.' Probably every musician dreams of doing one themselves - like I have the last few years. Being able to join the ranks of artists such as Alanis Morissette, Lauryn Hill, Bon Jovi, Die Toten Hosen, Sportfreunde Stiller, or Björk is absolutely insane to me. For my 20th anniversary, I couldn't have imagined anything better. It's a huge honor and a big challenge that I'm incredibly looking forward to."

Faber
6/30/2025 at 8:00 PM / Graz

After Faber has been on the road all summer with his latest album "Addio" (release date: 06/07/2024) and has performed concerts in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, he is now continuing directly next year. The Swiss artist is announcing new shows for summer 2025.

Since his first EP "Alles Gute," the Swiss songwriter Faber has been breaking through barriers in his career as if they were doors. He writes pointed lyrics that are among the wittiest and most polarizing you can currently hear. This leads Faber to sold-out tours and headlining slots at tastefully curated festivals – the artist is celebrated equally by critics and fans. After the debut EP, two outstanding albums were released, "Sei ein Faber im Wind" (2017), "I fucking love my life" (2019) and a live album titled "Orpheum" in late summer 2022. It is clearly audible on the latter: Faber concerts are exhilarating, elegant, and refreshingly challenging, making them the best live experience in German (and not only that, Faber also occasionally sings in Italian, French, or Swiss German).

On "Addio," Faber has severed ties with quantifiable art, with music that must not only stand on its own but also directly reflects its mass appeal. He has written songs that do not necessarily have to work but do so nonetheless. Songs that have matured and are now ready to show what they are made of in concert.

Faber will be accompanied, as in the Addio release tour in spring and the Addio Live 2024 dates in summer, by an expanded band consisting of Tillmann Ostendarp (drums, trombone), Janos Mijnssen (bass, cello), Goran Koč (keys), Max Kämmerling (guitar, percussion), Gina Été (vocals, viola), Hannah Adriana Müller (vocals, violin), Dino Brandao (vocals, guitar, percussion), and Mel D (vocals, guitar).

Gernot & Stipsits
7/1/2025 at 8:00 PM / Graz

Gernot & Stipsits
Lotterbuben

These two have found each other. Two arch-comedians, two thoroughbred musicians, two likeable characters, two exceptional performers, and above all, two friends. Thomas Stipsits and Viktor Gernot are finally on stage together with their cabaret program 'Lotterbuben'!

That both, as soloists and as team players, are among the fixed stars of the Austrian entertainment scene, they have impressively proven over the past decades. As 'Lotterbuben', they will portray characters full of playfulness, humor, storytelling, and curiosity, sing songs, play the guitar, and parody. And take their audience on a journey through reflections and perceptions of two Austrian cabaret greats.

A look at our world full of irony and satire, between love for humanity and incredulous amazement. And all of this with the competence of two seasoned men, representatives of two generations. Generation X meets a Millennial. The old, white man meets the Forty-Something. An old jazzer meets the Austropopper. The childless man meets the father of two.

And always resonating is the fact that behind these earnestly serious and undoubtedly believable protagonists, there are also two seasoned 'Lotterbuben'. Rarely malicious, and always with a twinkle in their eye, these rascals, these guys from the neighborhood, these 'Lotterbuben', play and sing their way through their first joint program. Enjoy!

Nockis Live
7/8/2025 at 8:00 PM / Graz

For over 30 years, the Nockis have been on stage. More than 30 years of experience in the live music scene. The Nockis - as they are called by their fans - have won the hearts of their audience. Step by step, they have climbed the ladder of success, mastering all levels of the music life bravely, and today are a stable presence when it comes to creating an unforgettable concert experience for fans of romantic pop songs.

It's not by chance. The Nockis have gone through the tough, versatile school of live performances. Where the audience is ruthless if the entertainment doesn't fit. As a result, over time, a congenial, highly professional mixture of the lead singer Gottfried Würcher's voice, the melodies, and above all the lifelike lyrics has developed.

The secret of success - if there is one - is quickly summed up in one point: The listeners at a Nocki concert almost completely identify with the lyrics. It seems as if these are written right from the core of people's souls. It is mostly about love with all its uncertainties, about life, friendship, or simply moments of happiness or passion. A Nocki show is therefore more than just a concert. It is the live soundtrack of the listeners' lives.

You have to see how the audience reacts to Friedl Würcher and you have to experience how the arc of entertainment spans all its facets. The Nockis are well prepared for a perfect show. A dense sound, a dramaturgy that keeps the concert lively, and technical equipment that leaves nothing to be desired. All this forms a whole. Success in the media and in CD sales, with numerous number one placements in the charts, seamlessly continues in the concert sector. This is exactly why the Nockis have been a fixed star in the pop music business for decades. A 'safe bet,' as it is often said.

Nabucco - Guiseppe Verdi - mit Solisten der Arena di Verona
7/10/2025 at 8:00 PM / Graz

FASCINATING BLOCKBUSTER

The choral opera "NABUCCO" by Giuseppe Verdi captivated the audience from its premiere night on March 9, 1842, at the TEATRO alla SCALA in Milan.

This enormous success has followed all Nabucco performances, regardless of the directorial interpretation, to this day. After 175 years, the opera is more relevant than ever. MARCEL PRAWY, the legendary Austrian opera guide, once said:

"This blockbuster of opera history must be performed again and again. This opera has the power of a young god, and the audience will be transported into a trance state, full of hope for a better world, at least during the Prisoners' or Freedom Chorus called 'Va pensiero sull'ali dorate - Fly, thought, on golden wings'."

For many spectators, this chorus remains eternally memorable from the joint performances of Zucchero and Luciano Pavarotti, for example, in 2004 at the Royal Albert Hall.

UNIQUE SYMBOLIC POWER AND MAGIC OF THE OPERA ITALIANA

What constitutes the secret of this success story?

This opera radiates a unique symbolic power. The great VERDI saw it this way too, as he, like many of his contemporaries, wished for a liberated and united Italy free from foreign domination.

And the opera's storyline provides an ideal template for this. Two storylines are intertwined: on one side, it is the story of the JEWS, ISRAELITES, LEVITES, who want to liberate themselves from Babylonian rule; on the other side, the Babylonian King Nabucco declares himself a god, goes mad, is incapacitated by his daughter Abigail, and in the end, becomes redeemed, redeemed by the God of the JEWS?

Can faith ultimately provide a solution, for example, for lasting peace?

The opera ensemble "Opera Italiana" is accompanied by the renowned conductor, Maestro GIORGIO CROCI, who has been tested at the Arena di Verona.

"ABBA music is incredibly catchy and so much fun, and we love sharing it with the audience. We can't wait to see everyone dancing and singing along with us." (PURA VIDA MUSICAL ENTERPRISES)

GLAMOROUS, ECCENTRIC, ENCHANTING

An elaborate light and sound concept as well as beautiful glamorous costumes ensure an authentic performance in the style of the originals. The legendary Swedish cult band has not lost any of its allure to this day, uniting all generations in an unforgettable concert evening.

THE SPIRIT OF FREDDIE MERCURY
The Voice - The Feeling - The Passion

TRIBUTE TO THE DAZZLING CHAMPION OF MUSIC HISTORY

Freddie Mercury was one of the most dazzling rock singers and personalities in music history. He filled the largest stadiums worldwide and captivated audiences with his compositions blending rock and theatrics. Like few others in rock 'n' roll history, Freddie Mercury, the singer of the band Queen, symbolizes extravaganza and grand performances. Privately, he lived life in the fast lane and was known for his extravagant and decadent lifestyle. Despite his HIV diagnosis, the singer remained in the studio until shortly before his death. Songs like "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "We are the Champions" immortalize Mercury.

ONE OF THE BEST QUEEN TRIBUTE BANDS IN THE WORLD

"A Tribute to Freddie Mercury" offers an extravagant stage show with leather outfits, baroque costumes, and fantasy uniforms complemented by video projections, dance, and international top female vocalists. One of the best Queen tribute bands in the world brings the artist, singer, and person "Freddie Mercury" to life!!! "When we started, Mercury lived in an almost insurmountable conflict; on one hand, the shy boy Farrokh Bulsara, and on the other hand, within him lay what he later called the extroverted monster, Freddie Mercury, whom we all later knew." said Roger Taylor, the drummer of Queen in his Mercury biography by Lesley Anne Jones.

BRINGING THE LEGEND TO LIFE

The Voice - The Feeling - The Passion is the motto of the magnificent 90-minute Rock & Music Show featuring all of Mercury and Queen's hits. The perfectly coordinated musicians bring the legend to life, celebrate the 1970s and 1980s, and with unparalleled authenticity, embody Freddie Mercury and Queen. It creates the feeling of experiencing the artists in person on stage once again.

Barbara Balldini - Höhepunkte
7/18/2025 at 7:30 PM / Graz

The enlightener of the nation is going into well-deserved retirement. But before that, she sweeps across the stage with her farewell program "Höhepunkte". Here, Balldini combines the funniest and most exciting moments from eight cabaret programs: everything you ever wanted to know about the so-called most beautiful thing in the world.

With "Höhepunkte", Balldini combines the funniest and most exciting moments from eight cabaret programs: everything you ever wanted to know about the so-called most beautiful thing in the world. She explains the dos and don'ts in the bedroom as well as preferences and inclinations that enrich human existence. She gives relationship tips for everyday life and shares anecdotes from her practice. She answers secret questions, clarifies myths, or discusses the impact of pornography on our sexuality. And last but not least, she reassures couples who are afraid because "things in bed" are working less and less, and with her knowledge, she becomes an inspiration for both young and old.
"Höhepunkte" always functions as an independent cabaret program and is thus much more than a classic "Best-Of". Alongside countless Hihi- and Haha moments, there are also many Aha insights – because as always, the motto applies: enlightenment with laughter AND a guarantee to learn.

Berlin / Los Angeles - With fanfares into the film music concert: the magnificent symphonic sound worlds of Hans Zimmer can be experienced for the first time in your city in a unique concert.

For the film score for Christopher Nolan's "Dunkirk", Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely changed the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid into the lyrics of The Lion King in the national language, telling the Disney corporation that it was about butterflies...

"The Music of Hans Zimmer & More - A Celebration of Film Music" is presented by the Hollywood Philharmonic Orchestra, a choir, and international soloists, with an impressive light show, projections, and selected film excerpts. "The Music of Hans Zimmer & More - A Celebration of Film Music" is an unforgettable audiovisual concert event.

The Magical Music of Harry Potter - Live in Concert!
With a special guest from the movies!

LONDON - The Harry Potter movies are among the most successful films in cinema history, and now the Oscar-nominated film music will be performed live for the first time in a unique concert evening with a special guest from the movies!

AN UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE
The Magical Music of Harry Potter presents a musical journey into the magical world of friendship, adventure, love, and wizards. Visitors can expect a world of illusion that gives them goosebumps. Visual and magical effects will make the hearts of all fans beat faster. Let yourself be enchanted and dive with us into magical soundscapes full of fantasy.

An original cast member, star soloists, and a wonderful orchestra will bring the musical world of Harry Potter to life. Visitors can look forward to the most musically popular highlights of the Harry Potter universe. The program includes melodies from all the film soundtracks.

THE MUSIC
On this evening, the audience will experience a musical "Best of Harry Potter" from all eight films and the theater work. John Williams (Star Wars, ET, Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park) composed the music for the first three films, and the audience can expect the most famous titles from these parts. Also featured are works by Patrick Doyle, who drew us into the mysterious and dark world of the "Triwizard Tournament" with his music in the fourth Harry Potter film. Nicholas Hooper helped shape Harry's maturation process in the fifth and sixth Harry Potter films, and Alexandre Desplat was responsible for the compositions of the Deathly Hallows in the last two works of the film series with the grand and unforgettable finale.

Der Herr der Ringe & Der Hobbit - Das Konzert
8/24/2025 at 8:00 PM / Graz

In a grand concert experience with a symphonic orchestra, choir, and special guests, the legendary world of Hobbits, Elves, and Orcs comes to life. From the threatening sounds of Mordor and the piercing attack of the Black Riders to the beautiful lyrical melodies of the Elves - the magnificent orchestra, soloists, and our special guests transform reality into a musical stage of Middle-earth. The voice of Saruman, Sir Christopher Lee, guides all film music lovers into the fantastic musical world of "The Lord of the Rings".

Featuring a special guest from the films who will lead through the program.

Composer Howard Shore created a large part of the music for the film trilogies "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit", earning an Oscar, Grammys, and a Golden Globe for it. His leitmotifs, much like Richard Wagner's "Ring of the Nibelung", physically make the audience feel when the Ring unleashes its power and corrupts the bearer of all power: a parable that could very well fit into today's world.

Whether bombastically with timpani and trumpets or delicately elvish, the well-known melodies performed by a fantastic orchestra and great soloists immediately evoke fitting images in the mind. Enjoy your time in Middle-earth!

This event will take place in accordance with all state regulations, please make sure to check in advance whether the event will proceed as planned and which Covid-19 regulations apply.
