A show experience in a class of its own - time travel guaranteed!

Just imagine: On a BMX bike without a helmet, at full throttle in a Manta and even on an aeroplane with a cigarette in your mouth - what a time! In this show, pop stars such as Rick Astley meet Gitte, Roxette meets Matthias Reim and the Spice Girls meet the Backstreet Boys - and the ‘first’ boy band with the three letters, which actually comes from Norway, is not to be missed.
The aerobics wave sweeps over from the USA and gets us going with ‘Enormous in Form’. BRAVO is still paid for in Deutschmarks, and cable TV provides us with our favourite shows such as ‘Der Preis ist heiß’ and ‘Familienduell’. ‘Tutti Frutti’ features cheeky little fruits and the Rubik's Cube provides hours of fascination. The first Nintendo games and the legendary ‘Snake’ on the first-generation mobile phones are also not to be missed - a whole new era begins!
But it wasn't just music that characterised these decades. Clean rain and the Cold War dominated the news, while we fought against it with ‘Ein bisschen Frieden’. And then came the moment that changed everything: David Hasselhoff tore down the wall and brought us freedom!
