Sven Ratzke | NL

Share this show

Heroes and rebels, muses and songbirds: Annie Lennox, David Bowie, Nick Cave and Grace Jones and composers such as Kurt Weill and Astor Piazzolla. They all come across in Sven Ratzke's show. As an entertainer, he knows how to give them a voice and a presence like no other. Before the show maker flies across the world, he visits his favourite festival, in the tent that he has been playing flat for years. Sven is present, and when he is, he always brings flair, beautiful songs, a bombastic show, and a wicked sense of humour.

Location Zuiderpark/Tent 5
Running time 70 min.

Ratzke is a musical chameleon who started his career in 1999 at Theaterfestival Boulevard and now performs worldwide – from Berlin to New York. In his vaudeville shows, he unites various musical styles. Together with his excellent pianist, he performs works by muses, rebels and songbirds, not to mention his own.
