Socialist satire & Red revues

Historian Mikkel Skvovgaard Petersen is behind the evening’s historical feature, who will also set the tone on the piano. The evening will be hosted by event manager Josefine Albris.

As a response to the bourgeois cultural offerings, the Social Democrats began staging a series of so-called “red revues” in the late 1930s. Here, the revue was used as a humorous means of raising awareness of social problems and challenges. This satirical song tradition is embedded in the songbook, and it’s what we’ll be getting acquainted with at this month’s ‘Fællessang & Folkets Køkken’

The People’s Kitchen

The menu is on its way. Vegetarian version can be ordered by email to kokken@cafeogoelhalle.dk no later than 6 days before the event.

History and wish concert

Join the community as we sing our way through the Labor Songbook. The first set consists of the historical element. In the second set of the evening, it’s up to the guests to decide which songs to sing from the Workers’ Songbook. A little anecdote about the songs is welcome!

The People’s Kitchen

After we’ve sung ourselves happy and warm in the workers’ song traditions, Café & Øl-Halle serves a favorite from the Danish folk kitchen
