Deus in Burnout - Will Graubünden save the world? with cabaret artist Luca Maurizio

In any case, the French philosopher Jean Bodin recognized that "the Three Leagues are more democratic than any other state in terms of constitution and government."

Does this mean that the famous Enlightenment thinkers Rousseau and Voltaire, the fathers of French democracy, drew their ideas of freedom from the Graubünden "lifestyle"?

Be that as it may, Catholics and Reformed Christians as well as not a few so-called heretics lived more or less peacefully side by side in the Three Leagues for almost a century, in the middle of a Europe marked by religious wars. A poor and uneducated Alpine population was able to show more tolerance than wealthy and supposedly highly developed societies.

And today? Optimization mania, identity conflicts and unbridled hedonism plunge democracies into narcissistic-existential crises. Everyone seeks a balance between individual and community and between soul and body, dedicates themselves to low-carb diets, sexy Pilates classes and ecstatic yoga classes. But the materialistic obsession outweighs the interest in transcendence, and God... is on the verge of burnout.

Where has his power disappeared? Who controls the fate of humanity now? Who took over his power? And what are the consequences of the new rule?

But just like 500 years ago, the valleys of the Three Leagues could bring about a political-religious-scientific revolution and lead humanity into an earthly paradise, inspired by the mythical Graubünden "life style"!

With his unmistakable voice and charismatic accent, the Bregaglia cabaret artist Luca Maurizio takes the audience on a fantastic, unpredictable and humorous journey.
