The tour started at 6 p.m. OVAG press spokesman Andreas Matlé informed the participants about the planning of the variety. The preparations are also the training of the artists, which started at the beginning of January. Six props work closely with the artists to ensure perfect illumination and precise stage labels.

backstage insights

Before the performances, the artists take up to four hours for their preparations. Stage master Walter Schmidt clarified the guests through the fire protection measures, while Jannik Wismar explained the processes "backstage". In a particularly hot place where the temperature reaches up to 45 degrees Celsius, thorough planning is imperative. There is one hour break between the shows, while the preparation and post-preparation times for the individual acts are 15 minutes.

A highlight of the event will be the appearance of Michael Ferreri. The 39-fold record holder in speed juggles impresses with its ball juggling and has learned its skills in a circus family. At the age of 11 he started juggling and trained for four to five hours without shows, during the variety stake even two to three hours.
