It is an archive, yes. But also a modern museum about cabaret. In any case, it is an information, event, and meeting place for young people and older visitors. Here, one can quench their thirst for knowledge, laugh, marvel, chat, complain, discuss, engage, and feel good, all to one's heart's content. People meet, at the latest, at the cabaret bar in the tightest of spaces amidst the archive.
Since 2019, Martina Keiffenheim has been the director of the German Cabaret Archive. Until 2021, the journalist was also the artistic director of her own cabaret stage, the KleineKUNSTBÜHNE in Saulheim.
The cabaret archive offers exclusive events on its stage, such as readings, cabaret, comedy, interview, and chanson evenings. In addition to guided tours and lectures, there are also exhibitions on cabaret-related topics throughout the year in the small, fine museum. Sometimes cheerful – sometimes contemplative. But always modern, informative, and entertaining.
