When the future suddenly laughs backwards

On Sunday, November 8, 2026, the wonderfully twisted wordplay of Karl Valentin and Liesl Karlstadt takes over in the St. Johanniskapelle Bamberg. Eli Wasserscheid, Martin Neubauer, and Martin Habermeyer present a brand new program on stage that creates a real laughing experience from verbal stumbling blocks, absurd brain knots, and seemingly completely logical questions.

Stand-up was yesterday – now the language stumbles

This Karl-Valentin program lives from precise timing, quirky logic, and that special art of turning a small misunderstanding into a complete stage chaos. When the spotlight doesn’t burn and the situation is rapidly taken into hand, a comedy atmosphere begins in which every word becomes a wobbling bridge.

Punchlines with depth and refined nonsense

The production combines cabaret, acting, and classic comedy. At the center are the peculiar language worlds of Karl Valentin and Liesl Karlstadt: refined nonsense, surprising thinking errors, and sentences that seem to tangle even when spoken. The audience does not expect a loud revue, but a detailed stage work with strong presence and dry humor.

Eli Wasserscheid meets the Brentano Theater

Eli Wasserscheid is known as a stage and crime scene star from Munich and Leipzig. Martin Neubauer leads the Brentano Theater in Bamberg and brings his experience as an actor and reciter. Together with Martin Habermeyer, an evening is created where interaction, stage rhythm, and pointed dialogues set the tone. The audience reaction is likely to be about as predictable as a Valentin sentence: hearty laughter, a brief pause for thought, even more laughter.

Conclusion: An evening for friends of clever laughter

Those who love cabaret, wordplay, and classic comedy with a personal touch will experience a special theater evening in Bamberg. The future was better in the past! promises a loving tribute to Karl Valentin and Liesl Karlstadt – with quirky situations, precise timing, and that rare kind of humor that continues to entertain in your mind even on the way home. Early reservation is recommended.
