biography

After graduating from secondary school, Hans Scheibner trained in 1953 as a publishing clerk at the Hamburger Fremdblatt . After completing his apprenticeship, he first worked as an editor for this newspaper, and from 1959 as a commercial correspondent in a paint factory. As early as 1954 during his traineeship he joined the theater team of Markus Scholz ' theater 53 , where he played a highly acclaimed “Wolfgang Borchert Evening” with Uwe Friedrichsen , at which Ida Ehre was also a guest. With Markus Scholz he also wrote his first comedy Die Laufmaschen .

In 1968 he appeared for the first time with satirical and lyrical texts and poems, which he called lascivious poetry based on the blasphemous songs of his friend Fritz Graßhoff . With these works he became increasingly known in the Hamburg cabaret and pub scene and wrote a number of songs for Meyers Dampfkapelle . Together with this band he belonged to the then flourishing Hamburg scene in the area around the music bar Onkel Pö . In 1972 his first volume of blasphemy poetry, Herr ES, took great care of himself , for which Werner Finck wrote an enthusiastic recommendation. 1973 followed when the nightingale strikes , 1974 mockery as a greeting .

In 1974 Scheibner wrote the lyrics to the successful song "Hamburg '75" for Gottfried & Lonzo - two other protagonists of the pensioner band - in which the two, as future residents of old people's homes, look back wistfully on their great times. Scheibner was also successful with his song “I like to stand on the assembly line”, which he brought out with Meyer's steam band. As a copywriter, he also came up with the well-known energy advertising slogan “I am two oil tanks”. Scheibner also wrote the German text for the song Schmidtchen Schleicher , with which Nico Haak landed a top 10 hit in Germany in 1976. In 1977 Scheibner presented the collection of satirical everyday stories in the valley, where the treadmills are , as well as another volume of blasphemy poetry, ridicule is omnipotent .

From 1975 he performed together with the Dutch pianist and composer Berry Sarluis. His LP "Heiliger Marx" caused a sensation, with which he completely ridiculed the prophets of the socialist workers' and peasants' state against the West German mainstream, including "Hannes Wacker, the singer with the workers' songs". He missed the sympathy and recognition of the left scene and with it the cabaret prize. With over a hundred satirical songs and chansons (LPs by phonogram, polydor, RCA) he was one of the most famous German songwriters. But also in this scene he lost a lot of sympathy with, among other things, his satirical article in the Spiegel about German-speaking songwriters "That just weighs a bird's-eye".

In 1977 Scheibner's LP Achterndiek was released with the title song of the same name, an anti-nuclear song based on Grimm's fairy tale Vom Fischer and his wife . The LP followed in 1979 It doesn't matter, nobody notices it! whose satirical title song of the same name became his most popular song, also because Scheibner has expanded it over the years with new verses that reflect current events.

In the 1980s Scheibner with the satirical television show has been ... scheib enough, the NDR television known nationwide, fell so but that more and more in the visor who felt attacked by his satires. To a large extent, environmental issues were also taken up, for example the Wadden Sea National Park , car exhaust fumes in Hamburg and Greenpeace (in the song David Grünfried ).

On November 1, 1985, there was a scandal when Scheibner sang on the NDR talk show on the occasion of the thirtieth anniversary of the Bundeswehr in a variation of the Tucholsky quote: The women (of today) cannot be saved themselves. They still send their sons to war / and they share beds with murderers! His show … was discontinued by slice and the Hamburger Abendblatt parted ways with him as a columnist.

Scheibner toured Germany as a cabaret artist and became a columnist for the Hamburger Morgenpost newspaper . In 1991, when the excitement about the "soldiers-are-murderers" quote had subsided, Scheibner was able to appear in the NDR regional program before the NDR talk show with his five-minute satirical contribution Five before Talk . After 6 years of a daily column, a total of 2000, for the Hamburger Morgenpost, difficulties arose again here - because of a satire about the noticeable sympathy of Hamburg police officers for the neo-Nazi scene. Scheibner refused to exchange the text; and he was fired. Gerd Schulte-Hillen was the publishing director at the time .

1986 appeared as a dtv paperback "Santa Claus in Need", which in 2012 reached the 27th edition. It already contained the first story with the title "Who takes grandma". This is also the name of the Christmas program with songs, sketches and scenes that brought Scheibner a great stage success. Since 1992 until today he has been performing (mostly with his wife Petra-Verena Milchert and with his daughter Raffaela) "Who takes grandma?" At all well-known cabarets and on theaters from Kiel to Stuttgart. Two bestsellers (Ellert & Richter and Ullstein) and four audio books were published by Audiobook Verlag Hamburg under the title “Who takes Oma?” And “Where to go with Oma?”.

In 1992 and 1993 he presented a total of 25 satirical lookups on the topics of the day on ARD . Here too there was another scandal. It was about the abortion paragraph 218. The then Saxon Interior Minister Steffen Flath demanded the resignation of the NDR director Jobst Plog and a lifelong television ban for Scheibner. In 1996 and 1998 he again produced the show ... by slice for NDR television. 2001-2006 Scheibner came again to a great public success. The NDR broadcast the political satire “Walther and Willy” a total of 266 times in its early evening program DAS. Scheibner discussed current political and social events with his dog. In 2004, the Miko Edition published an illustrated book: “They're crazy, these people”. The show was canceled in April 2006 for unknown reasons, despite the high audience figures.

In 2005, many of his old blasphemy poems titled I will never grow up, never! republished at dtv . Since 2007 Scheibner has been writing a weekly column for all newspapers of the shz (Schleswig-Holstein newspaper publisher) with great success. Scheibner wrote and performed four new cabaret programs, two solo theater pieces: 2006 “The Golf Player” (Altonaer Theater and Switzerland), 2008 “Herzklopfen”, (Kiel: Theater Die Komödianten) directed by 18-year-old Julie Maillot . In 2009 he played his two-person comedy “The Reconciliation” with Hannelore Dröge until 2011 at the Altona Theater and on tour. Directed by Axel Schneider .

In 2010, Hans Scheibner received the Biermann Ratjen Medal from the Hamburg Senate.

In 2012, under the influence of the banking scandals and the financial crisis, he wrote the satirical comedy "The Taking of Hostages", which premiered on June 30, 2013 at the Hamburger Kammerspiele. Directed by Hanns Christian Müller played Alexandra Kamp and Tim Grobe the leading roles.

"You have to congratulate the director of the Kammerspiele on having the courage to do this contemporary waggon theater."

- FRIDAY

At Christmas 2016, the Scheibner family ensemble (with Petra Milchert and daughter Raffaela) celebrated its twenty-fifth stage anniversary with the program “Who takes grandma?”! Olaf Scholz , First Mayor of Hamburg, gave a Senate breakfast for him and his friends in the Senate guest house on the occasion of Hans Scheibner's 80th birthday.

Scheibner lives with his second wife Petra Verena Milchert in Hamburg-Ohlstedt .
