Lisa Eckhart is on a big tour: cabaret highlights in Saxony!

The Austrian cabaret artist Lisa Eckhart, known for her ingenious satire and talent to explore the limits of humor, is on a big tour. From September 2025 she will present two programs: "Empress Stasi Die Erste" and "I was who". These programs not only promise to smile, but also deeper insights into their artistic development. News.de reports that the first appearances of the tour will take place in Halle (Saale) and Leipzig.

The premiere of “Empress Stasi Die Erste” is planned for September 10, 2025. This is followed by further performances in Leipzig, Magdeburg and Aurich. The entire period for this show extends until December 11, 2025. Ticket prices are between 40 and 42 euros, which makes the events an absolute “must” for cabaret lovers.

a new chapter: The debut novel "Omama"

If that wasn't enough, Lisa Eckhart's debut novel "Omama" will be released on August 17, 2025 on Zsolnay Verlag. The action includes several years, starting in 1945, when the young main character Helga tries for the favor of the occupiers with her sister. In the course of history, various aspects of life come up at the time - from marriage plans to hideous machinations in eastern Germany. According to your website, the book is intelligent, evil and last but not least strange: "A building block in your career that should look forward to your fans", notes lisackhart.com .

Eckhart plans to end their cabaret career after this tour and a total of four programs and to devote themselves exclusively to writing, even if they are thinking of not earning much financially with books. She appeals to her family to wish for great gifts, since in the not too distant future she only wants to be a writer.

a controversial figure

The career of the cabaret artist born in 1990 is anything but undisputed. Her appearances, especially that in the WDR show "midnight tips", were sometimes heavily criticized because it was accused of serving anti-Semitic clichés. Eckhart himself often sees itself as misunderstood. However, their critical voices have also led to a great reputation in certain circles; Kabarett.de , for example, emphasizes her linguistic excellence and the merciless puncture of your satire.

In the current debate, Eckhart also plays a role as Tim-Ishak: only unloaded by the Harbor Front Literature Festival in Hamburg, then invited again, but in the end she rejected the participation. Despite the controversy, it remains a distinctive voice in the Austrian cabaret scene and beyond.
