DIE ROTEN PUNKTE IS NOW PLAYING
Now – May 31, 2010 – Booth Playhouse
“It's a class act…intensely funny…their self-delusional electro-clash music exhibits influences from the B-52s, Lena Lovich and even Nick Cave” -

Charlotte, NC – If you enjoy the humor of bands like Spinal Tap or Flight of the Conchords, then don’t miss the East Coast debut of Die Roten Punkte, now playing in Charlotte’s Booth Playhouse through May 31, 2010.
Tickets are available and can be purchased online at BlumenthalCenter.org, by phone at 704-372-1000 or from the Blumenthal Performing Arts Center Box Office located in the Tryon Street lobby of the Belk Theater.
Die Roten Punkte (the utterly dysfunctional pairing of German siblings Otto and Astrid Rot) became an instant household name in Europe after topping the charts in Germany and Poland with their 2005 hits “I’m in a Band” and “Best Band in the World.” Described as "inspired, brilliantly executed lunacy…a lipstick-smeared, tantrum-loving, sonic collision between Plastic Bertrand, Kraftwerk and early Ramones,” Die Roten Punkte is unforgettably unique. Their songs are ridiculously infectious and their live show is one of the most irreverent and hilarious gigs you are ever likely to see.
Set to be the breakout hit of this year’s Spoleto Festival, don’t miss your chance to see this hilarious duo. Die Roten Punkte is the ultimate tongue-in-cheek tribute to all things rock ‘n’ roll.
