Hader muss weg!

Hader muss weg!

Warum muss Hader weg? Weil keine Zeit für die Revolution bleibt? Weil man Liebe kaufen kann? Oder weil Feinrippunterhosen so viel aufsaugen? "In diesem Programm kommen vor: eine nachtschwarze Vorstadtstraße voller Gebrauchtwagenhändler, eine heruntergekommene Tankstelle, ein versifftes Lokal, ein Kuvert mit 10.000 Euro, eine Schusswaffe und zirka sieben verpfuschte Leben. Das ist Pulp Fiction in Österreich. Eigentlich eine Mischung aus Film und Theaterstück. Kabarettprogramm ist leider gar keines", so Josef Hader selbst über "Hader muss weg". Ganz klar: Dieser Mann muss bleiben!

Gangster Squad

Gangster Squad

Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless, Brooklyn-born mob king Mickey Cohen runs the show in this town, reaping the ill-gotten gains from the drugs, the guns, the prostitutes and — if he has his way — every wire bet placed west of Chicago. And he does it all with the protection of not only his own paid goons, but also the police and the politicians who are under his control. It’s enough to intimidate even the bravest, street-hardened cop… except, perhaps, for the small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders led by Sgt. John O’Mara and Jerry Wooters who come together to try to tear Cohen’s world apart.
