Die Feisten in Cottbus

Die Feisten are a German musical-comedy duo comprising Mathias Zeh and Rainer Schacht. Both previously performed in the vocal group Ganz Schön Feist, and their later duo work combines close-harmony singing, comic songwriting and acoustic accompaniment. Their best-known numbers include “Kriech nich da rein,” “Junggesellenabschied” and “Nussschüsselblues.” The duo toured German cabaret houses and theatres with full-length programs including Versuchslabor, Nussschüsselblues and Adam & Eva. Their stage format centers on two voices, guitars, bass and other instruments, linked by spoken comedy between the songs. They later added Familienfest to that sequence of theatre programs.
