Description

Berlin's prince and princess of art rock and Europop, Otto and Astrid, spent years arguing about which songs should appear on their much-anticipated fifth Die Roten Punkte album. Unable to reach a consensus, the dysfunctional brother/sister duo decided to tour separately with their own musicians. Unfortunately, nobody else wanted to play with them so they're stuck being each other's backing band in a... joint solo project. 'Pitch-perfect pop parody. If there's a fan club, I'm joining!' **** (Scotsman). 'The perfect musical comedy act. It should not be missed' ***** (BroadwayBaby.com). ***** (ThreeWeeks). ***** (CBC).

Great show, what the fringe is all about. Clever lyrics, great music, you’ll have tasty snacks tune in your head whenever you see a bag of crisps…

A great cabaret performance with some strong songs and characterization. Well paced and never overstays its welcome.

Like Greenday? Then you will love the musical style of Otto ….
Matched perfectly against the “totally separate” Drum based music and soulful voice of Astrid
Loud, brash, in your face, fun cabaret for all
