Balagan
The origin of the word balagan is obscure. In modern Russian it usually means something like “cheerful chaos”. In eastern Europe it is also associated with fairs and fairground stalls. Balagan conjures up images of days gone by when travelling performers toured the marketplaces, entertaining young and old alike with their fire-eating acts, dancing bears, jugglers and musicians.

With total disregard for any form of labelling, the musicians and artistes of Balagan combine different cirque-style elements, eccentric figures and constantly changing, surreal stage sets in an enthralling and spectacular show. The artistes meet at the market-place of music and tell spell-binding tales that are sometimes comedic and sometimes melancholy, but always creative and imaginative. With a hint of irony and tongue-in-cheek humour, the troupe ingeniously blends folkloric sounds with Yiddish klezmer, tango, jazz and even pop and punk. A “zany, lyrical and spicy potpourri” (Hamburger Abendblatt).
