Helga Schneider – Miststück | DAS ZELT

Now it has also hit Helga: She finally wants to become a better person. But that's not so easy. Because the deeper she digs into her 30-year stage history, the more of her own final worries and old burdens come to the surface! And so Helga suddenly has to face completely new questions. Is the hole in the ozone layer more threatening than a hole in her costume? Doesn't she first need new shoes for a smaller ecological footprint? Is a long-haul flight less bad if she orders the veggie menu on the plane? Does she pollute the oceans by throwing old habits overboard? And how on earth is she supposed to dispose of her own body in an environmentally friendly way one day?

Helga digs through the dung heap of her own history, disposes of all the bottles she has ever encountered in her life, and fights food waste with binge eating and fast fashion with shopping orgies. The well-founded environmental impact assessment of Schneider's lifestyle leads to such a sobering result that Helga is left with only one thing to do in the end: Before the mood completely tips over, she'd rather have another cüpli.
