Schlager begleiten uns ein ganzes Leben. Sie dröhnen unsere Ohren und Gehirne zu: mit ihren penetrant glücklich und noch öfter unglücklich Verliebten, den Cowboys und Matrosen. Keiner entkommt den Schnulzen über die schöne Heimat und die noch schönere Fremde. Die Welt der Schlager ist amüsant, bizarr, komisch und gibt doch Auskunft über menschliches Verhalten. Aus Schlagern entstehen Sketche und szenische Bilder, eine satirisch-kabarettistische Musikrevue: witzig, turbulent, nachdenklich.
