Talentschuppen was a TV show of the then Südwestfunk (SWF) in Baden-Baden , in which young talented singers presented their pieces. The show can be considered a forerunner of today's casting shows .
Dieter Pröttel , presenter and director of the show, offered young singers a stage to show their talent. The performing artists were mostly unknown; if they convinced, they could come back.
Many artists became known through the talent shed, for example Gaby Berger , Juliane Werding , Jörg Knör , Ute Lemper , Elfi Graf , Inga and Wolf , Penny McLean , Bernd Clüver , Reinhard Mey , The Petards , Joy Fleming , Hape Kerkeling , Peter Schilling . One of the discoveries of the show was the young Michael Schanze (first appearance in April 1968, others followed). Schanze later became famous as a singer, but above all as an entertainer, not least because of his Saturday evening show Flitterabend with Dieter Pröttel as director.
Pröttel moderated from 1966 to 1973 and later again from 1982 to the end of 1984. In between, Bill Ramsey was the host. The show ran the night before in the 1960s and was half an hour long, in the 1970s - now 45 or 60 minutes - on Saturday afternoons and in the 80s on Thursdays at 9.45pm. In between there were full-length special editions.
From January 1985, the youngsters also got their chance to act as moderators: Jörg Knör , Klaus-Peter Grap , Christoph Lanz and Inga Franke-Schulz each moderated a program. The 67th and last regular edition ran in October 1985; There followed a few special editions called Talentschuppen Berlin with excerpts from the Berlin radio exhibition , moderated by Sabrina Lallinger and Karl Dall , as well as the Euro Talentschuppen with artists from all over Europe, moderated by Sabrina Lallinger.
