Ben Schafmeister – A tic different
“Ein Tic Anders” is the name of Ben Schafmeister’s first solo program, with which he has been touring Germany since 2026.
The title says it all: Ben has Tourette’s syndrome – and he turns it into comedy that is not only funny, but also disarmingly honest.
Because what is actually normal? And how much of it do we really need?
His show is not classic stand-up, but entertainment: self-written songs, stand-up, improv, visual presentations and audience interaction – all combined in a unique mix that captivates his audience from the first to the last minute.
Whether absurd stories from the life of an artist, the peculiarities of Generation Z or the pitfalls of growing up – Ben hits the nerve of the times and delivers an evening full of energy, charm and unforgettable moments.

Robert Stadlober
It is about the impossibilities of human interaction. In matters of love as well as in matters of hate, about the senselessness of violence and the hopelessness of politics that seeks to convey itself through violence. It is about the longing for a kind of real life and the perpetual struggle of the many for a small piece of the whole.
And Robert Stadlober sings, speaks and reminds us that so much has not changed since Kurt Tucholsky said: “If we are not cruel, then we immediately believe that we are good.” Our times are certainly not really worse, but they are certainly not better either.

Cassy Carrington – A Cassy Christmas
Cassy Carrington – more tinsel when in doubt.
The big, revamped Christmas show by Cologne’s “Queen of Christmas” Cassy Carrington – with Xmas classics, her own hits, comedy and Christmas eroticism.
As every year, Cassy invites you to her own, not-so-holy evening. In addition to the entertainment on stage, the drag queen also seeks out spontaneous conversations with the audience and hopefully meets the next flirt under the Christmas tree. They sing and laugh together and sometimes it might even get a little pre-Christmas melancholy. Maybe Cassy will even get out her recorder or read an erotic Christmas poem. This evening is full of surprises.
Organizer: Kreis Borken and Aidshilfe Westmünsterland e.V., in cooperation with the rock’n’popmuseum

SOLD OUT! Jan van Weyde – Weyder is on the move
Ladies and gentlemen! Here it is – the second child, the second program, the second big cap!
Weyder is on the move! Jan van Weyde talks about the daily madness of being a working dad to two young daughters – one in the throes of anger, the other in the middle of teething puberty. His day starts at 6:30 in the morning with brushing his teeth, painting unicorns and dressing up in Disney costumes – until the children are awake. Then the big one has to go to school and the little one has to go on “Tinder dates”, as she calls it.
And while he ends up in mini hotel beds on tour and feels like a student at parents’ evenings, life asks him the big questions: What do babies dream about? What do you call female meerkats? And are you allowed to “accept cookies” at Weight Watchers?
