Hader muss weg! (2006)
Character: Himself
Warum muss Hader weg? Weil keine Zeit für die Revolution bleibt? Weil man Liebe kaufen kann? Oder weil Feinrippunterhosen so viel aufsaugen? "In diesem Programm kommen vor: eine nachtschwarze Vorstadtstraße voller Gebrauchtwagenhändler, eine heruntergekommene Tankstelle, ein versifftes Lokal, ein Kuvert mit 10.000 Euro, eine Schusswaffe und zirka sieben verpfuschte Leben. Das ist Pulp Fiction in Österreich. Eigentlich eine Mischung aus Film und Theaterstück. Kabarettprogramm ist leider gar keines", so Josef Hader selbst über "Hader muss weg". Ganz klar: Dieser Mann muss bleiben!

The despairing Austrian couple begins a confusing odyssey through Turkey in order to track down the unsuspecting family to their native village. But they are not at all convinced that the babies have been mixed up. It is decided that the only way to know for sure is to have a blood test done. It is decided that the blood work is done in Vienna due to the better medical resources, but that will be far from simple.

Josef Hader - Privat (1997)
Character: Josef Hader
Aufgezeichnet in der Burgarena Finkenstein Grossartig, die Szenerie der Burgarena Finkenstein. Josef Hader, der Solist, weiß entsprechend damit umzugehen. Die unsichere Gewissheit, dass der Mensch nur einmal lebt, hat viele Gesichter. Josef Hader vertont diese Gesichter in "privat" und macht uns wieder mit ihnen vertraut.

Beruhigend ist das nicht, nur befreiend.
