Art in Cinema - "Marco Tschirpke - Empirically Proven Rolls"

Poems & Songs – predominantly in a comedic manner Whether it’s a poem or a piano song – the comedian Marco Tschirpke knows how to keep it brief. Filled with references to art and history, an evening with the winner of the German Cabaret Award 2018 is primarily an intellectual pleasure. The way he intertwines the present with the past and the lofty with the lowly is so outrageously delightful and entertaining that his audience often can’t get enough. And kitchen poetry is not neglected either. Would you like a sample? “FONDUE – that means: At round tables / Fishing together in the murky.” Tschirpke is also considered one of the cleverest pianists in his field, thanks to a joy of playing that often leads him to daring maneuvers. His latest poetry collection “Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Günther” (2015) became a Spiegel bestseller.
