Welcome to the shadowy world of the Tiger Lillies—where Berlin cabaret of the Weimar Republic meets ghost opera, where Brecht and Brel drink together while the accordion moans and a falsetto cuts through the darkness. For almost 40 years they have been touring the world tirelessly: shrill, offbeat, deeply theatrical. Their songs sound like musical nightmares with astonishing heart. Martyn Jacques stands there like a man touched by madness—between piano and accordion, between world-weariness and circus. Their concerts are fever dreams: you laugh even though you shouldn't. You listen even though—or perhaps because—it hurts. They provided the music for Johnny Depp's film "Modi," wrote themselves into theater history with the musical "Shockheaded Peter," and have enchanted stages around the world with their music. The Guardian calls them "phenomenal," The Scotsman simply "glorious." And The Times simply said: "In an ideal world, the Tiger Lillies would represent Great Britain at the Eurovision Song Contest."
Tickets are € 43 for adults and € 34.40 for students.
