Location: Romano-Guardini-Platz, Mainz, Germany.
Photos: © Albert Hagenaars, 7 February 2016.
Established by: Deutsches Kabarettarchiv, Forum Theater, The town of Mainz, 2004.



In the German town of Mainz, the project 'Stars of Satire' intends to honour the "Besonderen unter den Ausgezeichneten" in the field of cabaret. It consists of bronze tiles with names of the artists on Romano-Guardini-Platz. This square, called after priest and theologian Romano Guardini, is located between the German Cabaret Archives and the Forum Theatre. The signatures of eighty nominees have been engraved in stainless steel.
With this project the initiators want to remember the personalities who, as writers or performers in international cabaret, have animated the artistic process of their genre or participated otherwise in its history, from the foundation of the first cabaret, Le Chat Noir in Paris, on. Supported by founders and sponsors they pay respect to satirists and artists, some of them still alive, whose achievements have proven to be probing enough to keep influencing people all over the world.

BOOMMOEDER

Gegroefd is ze, iets gekromd
naar een lied van wie haar lief
is, verstuikt in het licht,
waarnaar zij vele kinderen richt
die braken uit haar huid

Tot bloedens toe
is het snijden in haar ziel,
dat zij met haar sap verzacht.

Nu staat ze in de luwte
van gedachten, verbonden
aan ruwe grond, daarin vergroeid,
gekroond en fier
en wil dat weten.













Second to the left: poet Catharina Boer.

Naer u, die alderliefste mijn!
U liefde heeft my so ser bevanghen!

Voor al die de werelt alghemeine
Zo wie dat horet ofte siet,
Hebdy mijn hertken geheel alleine
Daerom, lief, begheeft mij niet!
