Helmut Schleich

A new program? You can't say that.
Helmut Schleich does what he wants. No two evenings are the same.
His role model is the government. And so he says to himself: what do I care about yesterday's gossip?
After all, we live in a time when reality outbids cabaret day after day.

"Overtaking without catching up" used to be the name of the game under socialism.
Back then, Russia was building the largest hydrogen bomb in the world. The so-called Tsar Bomb.
It was so big that no carrier system was able to transport it.
That was a peace initiative. The Americans were taken by surprise. With intolerable pacifism from
pacifism from the "evil empire".

Good cabaret and politics do have something in common: they both want to surprise people.
Cabaret has to be like the Tsar's bomb. Incendiary and unbearable.
You can't say that like that.
No matter.
Helmut Schleich simply does it.
