poetry trifft Poesie Der Slammer Malte Küppers und der Rezitator Wolfgang Wewer zu Gast bei Michael Domas

It’s been a long time since slam poetry and lyric poetry—the spoken and written word—have come together.
Malte Küppers is a social worker, and it shows. He skillfully channels the mild despair that comes with his day-to-day work into his texts as an “anti-social worker” on stage, processing his experiences with a healthy dose of humor. When Malte isn’t ranting and raving on Instagram about current events, he needs a way to unwind—and laughter is the best way to do that. Even if the scenarios he describes from Duisburg’s troubled neighborhood can bring tears to your eyes, in the end there should still be a small spark of hope as the audience leaves the hall. Whether you want to laugh at anecdotes from everyday work life or need a few tips on how to navigate today’s society, Malte Küppers has just the right approach for you!
“Malte observes society with incredible subtlety, draws you into a story from the very first second, and then—completely out of the blue—surprises you with a punchline that knocks you off your feet like a crash in Mario Kart!” (Burak Yilmaz)

Accompanied on the piano by Rolf Kuhl,Wolfgang Wewer will perform Heinrich Heine’s “Loreleylied”set to music by Friedrich Silcher, as well as the poem “Der Handstand auf der Loreley” byErich Kästner.
