About this event
Taylor Swift had Eras. Otto & Astrid go through Stages.

Fresh from Glastonbury Festival!

Berlin’s Prince and Princess of Art Rock and Europop, Otto & Astrid – Die Roten Punkte, thunder through a blisteringly hilarious set of songs from (almost) all of their albums.

The utterly dysfunctional siblings are a lipstick smeared sonic collision between The B-52s, The Pixies, Kraftwerk and early Ramones.

This multi award-winning duo have played everywhere from Soho Theatre London, Joe’s Pub – New York, The Roxy – Los Angeles, and opened for Amanda Palmer in Europe, USA, and Australia.

One of the most irreverently side-splitting gigs you are ever likely to see, with ridiculously infectious songs, Otto & Astrid are truly one of a kind.

***** “The perfect musical comedy act – it should not be missed” Broadway Baby, UK

***** "Otto & Astrid are a triple threat: consummate musicians, comics and actors... together they are phenomenal." Artshub

***** “Otto & Astrid take rock to a new level with this wild cabaret” Herald Sun

**** “Intensely funny” The Age

**** “Louder than the White Stripes, more dysfunctional than Metallica and funnier than Flight of the Conchords!” The Irish Times

***** “Made me want to jump out of my chair and dance.” Three Weeks, UK

***** “Fiendishly smart comedy... The show is a riot of fabulous visual sight gags, sharply witty banter and big musical beats.” Shadows on the Wall, UK

***** “Hilarious!” CBC Canada

**** “Pitch perfect pop parody!” The Scotsman

  • Things to note: Otto & Astrid are Berlin’s (self-appointed) Prince and Princess of Art Rock and Europop. They are super musicians and unparalleled performers of stellar proportions - gigantic and explosive. Tragically orphaned as children, the brother and sister duo ran away from their small rural hometown and ordinary childhood, to Berlin, and knew instantly they had found a place among the counterculture, a home in a squat - and the solace and saviour of the rock ‘n’ roll music. They’ve toured all over the world rocking out at The Roxy in LA, Soho Theatre London, Joes Pub New York, Rurfestspiele Recklinghausen, The Kesselhaus Berlin, La Botanique in Brussels, Norwich and Norfolk Festival UK, Spoleto USA, Barrow Street Theatre New York, Sydney Arts Festival -Australia, Adelaide Cabaret Festival - Australia,The Cultch Vancouver, Centaur Theatre Montreal and the Ann Arbor Summer Festival to name a few. They’ve visited Edinburgh many times with their shows; Super Musician, Kunst Rock (Art Rock) and Eurosmash! They have also presented their cult hit show, Otto & Astrid’s Haus Party (presented by The Melbourne International Comedy Festival since 2009 at their Festival Club), twice before at Edinburgh Fringe. Their work has been nominated for twelve Greenrooom awards (Production, Original Songs, Artistes’ and Writing), winning Best Production for Cabaret twice in Melbourne, Australia. They have also been nominated at Edinburgh Fringe for the prestigious Total Theatre Award and the London Time Out Soho Theatre Award.
