Info
With BORN TO BE CHILD, Alex Kristan presents not just a cabaret program, but an attitude to life. And one that we forget far too often in "adult mode" because the voice of reason is so loud. The perfect reason for him to continue to follow his guiding principle "Reasonable is like dead - only before" unwaveringly. Alex Kristan has consistently refused to grow up for over fifty years and increasingly prefers to escalate in an age-appropriate manner. In times when people are suing their own mirrors for body-shaming, he holds one up to us all the more - and shows us with his very own "born-identity" that it is possible to make faces despite responsibilities, to-do lists and social norms. With a sharp eye and even sharper wit, he dissects the absurdities of modern adulthood. Men with a woman complex, silver foxes with an ageing allergy or the fitness mania vs. the I'm-always-beautiful lie. Not forgetting the Nine-Eleven of the pension system, also known as "Rentenhausens Nightmare": the longevity hype and the romanticized escape "back to nature" in the hope that the supposedly intact world there will last a while longer. For him, being an adult does not mean fulfilling expectations and functioning in the zeitgeist, but keeping the promises you made to yourself as a child. For Alex Kristan, keeping this child - and thus the humor - alive in us is the all-purpose remedy against the seriousness of life. As a dream team, Alex Kristan and his inner "Rotzpipn" remind us that this is not a dress rehearsal, but the actual main program. Together, they pull the audience's diaphragm over their ears again - with heart, brain and childlike joy.
