30 years of Couplet-AG! "Favorites"

For three decades, the Couplet-AG has uniquely shaped the cabaret landscape in Bavaria and far beyond. Now, they celebrate their remarkable and noteworthy satire anniversary. The event will be crowned with an extraordinary anniversary program.

Not only will there be classics and highlights, but also the latest numbers presented together in one program for the first time. Additionally, the brand-new, highly topical scenes and songs from the Couplet-AG featured in the BR-Brettl-Spitzen will be included!

This is a true satire festival for all fans and a comprehensive showcase of the Couplet-AG, which satirically dissects nearly everything through songs and sketches. They have dusted off the traditional song form of the couplet and reinvigorated the legacy of Munich's folk singers with new life.

For 30 years, the Couplet-AG has not only been a cult part of the southern German cabaret scene but also ranks among the most successful music and political cabaret groups in the country. As masters of satire, they are celebrated by critics and have performed over 5000 times at all renowned small art and cabaret stages in southern Germany and Austria. They have also made numerous appearances in TV and radio shows, including Schlachthof, Spaß aus Mainz, Freunde in der Mäulesmühle, BR-RadioSpitzen, and especially in their own show "Brettl Spitzen" on BR television.

Awarded with the Bayerischer Kabarettpreis, the Bayerischer Dialektpreis, and the Bayerischer Poetentaler, the Couplet-AG presents for the first time and exclusively their anniversary program showcasing three decades of stage work!

Moreover, they are the longest-standing, non-related, and non-affiliated music cabaret ensemble in Bavaria! The founder, frontman, and author of the Couplet-AG, Jürgen Kirner, is also a member of the presidium of the Münchner Turmschreiber and the initiator of the BR-Brettl-Spitzen and the Munich Fountain Festival at the Viktualienmarkt. His texts and couplets illuminate the subversive core of the Bavarian soul and uniquely accompany the lives of political protagonists.

To date, eleven CDs and three DVDs have been released, along with extensive tours and concerts. With the Couplet-AG, he has revived the supposedly dead tradition of folk singers and successfully redefined the couplet song form in absolute originality. Satirically sharp texts and Couplet-AG classics like 'Geh peitsch mi', 'Oh CSU, von der wir alles haben', and 'A Glaserl Eigenurin' have been immortalized in numerous publications and their own songbook, and they are publicly performed by countless enthusiastic fans across the country. Together with constantly new and topical ideas and texts, these couplets and scenes create an ideal means for biting satire and sharp wit, connecting back to the great tradition of Munich's folk singers.
