The Maybe Talent Show

Day 2 23:00 Fuse en Entertainment
Dec. 28, 2025 23:00-00:30
Come on stage and present things you are very bad in. Or just mediocre. Get raging applause and love from the audience! Hosted by the drag-quings Norman Müller-Schmitz and James Bonne d'age this open stage celebrates trying, failing and the beauty of discovering hidden Talents together when the most beautiful cuties from the audience enter the stage to try something they have absolutely no experience in.

The show is an open format that gives people the space to show themselves, be visible and make themselves vulnerable. We bring a queer format that celebrates people for simply being humans to Hamburgs neighborhood pubs, autonomous stages and other easily accessible spaces. In doing so it's explicitly anti-capitalist, builds communities and unlikely alliances. Not just in the hacker/CCC community we applaud the cool things people can do: The big stage is often reserved for outstanding achievements; attention and social credits usually go to those who already have the network and skills. While we consider celebrating success to be absolutely necessary, we see the need to give people space to try things out, to fail publicly without having to be ashamed, and to celebrate Imperfection. Stage presence comes from trying on stage, and the Maybe Talent Show is the place where this is possible for everyone. Inclusive, hilarious and without making fun of anyone. Promise.
