A chanson evening between mockery, wordplay, and rich stage presence

When Philip Richert invites you to Schwerin for Georg Kreisler and Thomas Pigor, music theater condenses into an evening full of sharp humor, dark elegance, and quiet melancholy. PAY ATTENTION! has been part of the repertoire of the Theater Lüneburg for years and will take the stage on October 11, 2026, at KlangWert/werk3 as a sharply focused preview. The evening combines chanson, cabaret, and acting into a stage experience that relies on words and attitude.

Georg Kreisler as a sharp knife in velvet

Georg Kreisler is considered one of the great satirists of German-language chanson. His songs look at society, politics, and human weaknesses with bitter humor; titles like Circus, Pigeon Poisoning in the Park, or Opera Boogie represent an art that both entertains and challenges the audience. Richert draws from this wealth alongside Daniel Stickan, shining a new light on well-known numbers and forgotten treasures. ([klangwert.net](https://www.klangwert.net/))

Thomas Pigor as a modern successor

The chansons of Thomas Pigor and Benedikt Eichhorn set a contemporary counterpoint. With songs like Complaining Pensioners or What Do You Want in Vienna, the program broadens its satirical range and maintains a tone between cabaret, musical finesse, and linguistic sharpness. Richert sees these pieces as a continuation of a tradition shaped by Kreisler: precise, cheeky, and incorruptible.

KlangWert/werk3 as an intimate venue

The werk3/KlangWert is Schwerin's smallest theater address and has been a place for multi-genre formats since 2008, from theater and comedy to music theater and concerts. The intimate stage in Domwinkel, the family atmosphere, and the closeness to the audience significantly shape the evening: here, nuances, pauses, and punchlines have a special effect. The venue describes itself as a place for discoverers; it has a capacity of up to 100 seats according to the Music Information Center. ([klangwert.net](https://www.klangwert.net/))

What distinguishes this evening

Richert and Stickan work here with precise dramaturgy: voice, piano, and text form a dense web where irony never becomes mere numbers. Instead, a lively theater atmosphere arises, where punchlines hit, melodies resonate, and the audience's reaction becomes an integral part of the performance. Those who love chanson will experience a stylistically elegant and cleverly constructed music theater with a clear cultural profile.
