Ratzke lets you wander through the twinkling dream world of film; from the first flickering images in a small viewing box to the grandeur of Hollywood and the poetry of cinema masters such as Fellini, Fassbinder, Hitchcock and Lynch.
Famous film songs sound in surprising new arrangements and in between the music Ratzke lets divas and dreamers come to life in, often personal, stories and memories. Sometimes witty, sometimes melancholy. For example, you may suddenly find Greta Garbo or Miss Piggy standing before you. In KOPFKINO the play turns into a living movie screen and you are taken to a universe in which anything is possible!
"Ratzke is a peerless performer."
About Sven Ratzke
In recent seasons, Ratzke sold out venues from Amsterdam to New York with his homages to legends such as Marlene Dietrich and David Bowie. Last season he toured successfully with Matangi with Dans op de Vulkaan, a performance about the 1920s in Berlin in which he spoke out explicitly against the oppression of minorities.
Ratzke's love for film is great and this inspiration is visible in all his shows. His shows are characterized by a fascinating mix of theater and cabaret, with always as a common thread compelling music that he puts completely to his own hand. An evening with Sven Ratzke is always different, surprising, musical, often hilarious and always completely authentic.
