At a performance in Linz

Roland Düringer: Fuck-me-nothing in slippers

T-shirt, jogging trousers, later in slippers instead of shoes: Roland Düringer is very casual in his program "Regenerationsabend 2.0".

He achieved cult status with the TV format "MA 2412", films such as "Muttertag" and "Hinterholz 8" brought further popularity boosts: Roland Düringer. Many years after his great successes, he is still far from tired of the stage: in the Rosengarten am Pöstlingberg in Linz, he provided entertaining entertainment and presented himself as a star to attack.

"Have you prepared for the evening?" Roland Düringer asks at the beginning of the program, then takes off his shoes, swaps them for slippers and declares his "Regeneration Evening 2.0" open.

What then follows in the Rosengarten am Pöstlingberg in Linz is a colorful mix that seems partly improvised because the cabaret star fully engages with his audience. They talk shop about motorcycles or about their time in the army. "If anyone doesn't know anything, please ask," he emphasizes several times.

Years since he stepped on the gas on the race track
Facial expressions, punchlines - Düringer entertains to the point, paying tribute to his acting teacher Herwig Seeböck, but also to his parents, who were characterized by fear. He became a fucking me-nothing: Nevertheless, he hasn't stepped on the gas on the motorcycle track for years, he reveals to the guests, among whom he mingles before his performance and also during the interval.

Next dates in the Rosengarten: August 28 Barbara Balldini; August 29 The great night of music legends. Info and tickets: www.rosengarten.cc
