With his new program Dr. Eckart von Hirschhausen goes back to his roots: medicine and magic. What many people don't know: before Hirschhausen became known for medical cabaret, he was already on stage as a magician. Time to combine these skills into a unique show: comedy, audience action and music mix with magic and wonder at the wonders of the body.
Jesus could turn water into wine. But isn't it at least as amazing that man is able to turn all that wine back into water overnight?
Hirschhausen unpicks the argument between conventional and alternative medicine and shows with great humor why placebos even work if you don't believe in them! What else can you believe in. What is lazy magic, what is healing self-deception? "Miracle Healers" is Hirschhausen's most personal program, as he tells much of his own journey through doctors' offices, hospitals and the world of alternative medicine. Sensational: the spontaneous miracle healer operation on a spectator from the audience. When the appendix is pulled through the abdominal wall without anaesthesia, no eye remains dry. The pianist starts to float, and thanks to homeopathy a severed hand grows back. Further spontaneous miracles on the spot not excluded. If you haven't seen this live experience with your own eyes, which ones have you?
