Volkmar Staub enjoys the Alemannic madness in Heilbronn

If southwestern Germany were its own world power, Microsoft would probably have an Alemannic founder and California would have long written Baden colonial history. In his political cabaret "Soaking!", Volkmar Staub targets regional identity, globalization, and the great self-deceptions of the republic on November 20, 2026, at Kulturkeller Heilbronn.

Wordplay with Baden depth

Staub assumes the role of the Baden grumbler Thomas Greinacher and leads the audience through a story full of self-doubt, megalomania, love for freedom, and provincial chauvinism. His punchlines arise from linguistic precision: from attackers become Atten-täter, from paramedics Sani-täter, and from experience ultimately Humani-täter. This is political cabaret as verbal acrobatics with a healthy Alemannic influence.

A comedy atmosphere between world blues and arrogance

"Soaking!" combines stand-up elements, satire, and cabaret into an idiosyncratic laugh experience. Volkmar Staub does not observe the world from a safe distance but right in the southwestern corner of the republic. His stage presence thrives on timing, deliberately set verbal hooks, and the interaction between sharp thought and surprising punchline.

From Freiburg scene cabaret to the big small arts stage

Volkmar Staub has been part of the political cabaret scene for decades. He was a co-founder of the Freiburg scene cabaret Riebyse and Buurepunk, collaborated with Matthias Deutschmann and Werner Klenk, and stood on stage for many years with Florian Schroeder. The Frankfurter Rundschau described him as the wordplay philosopher among political cabaret artists. In 2023, Staub received the honorary award of the Baden-Württemberg Small Arts Prize.

An evening for everyone who likes to view their homeland critically

Baden history, globalization, and the supposed idyllic world in the southwest collide with sharp observational skills and literary wordplay. Staub does not turn regional self-awareness into a homeland museum, but rather a movable cabaret lab where every expression suddenly develops a political side effect.

Conclusion: Visitors can expect an energetic cabaret evening with sharp timing, linguistic finesse, and a large dose of Baden self-irony. Those who love political satire, intelligent punchlines, and live comedy with attitude will experience Volkmar Staub best directly at Kulturkeller Heilbronn.
