----------
All images in this series were taken as part of a reportage for which I was granted unrestricted access.

Here, for the first time, individual photos are offered as prints.

Founded in 1964 Safari Varieté offered not only striptease shows but also live sex acts on stage. The sex shows resembled stage plays with weird plots inevitably leading to a live sex act on stage somtimes performed by a whole bunch of actors at once. It was not uncommon even that brave spectators from the audience would join the stage action.

There where separate rooms where actors could be met by guests after the show for private entertainment sessions.

My time at this venue gave me insights into a hidden world full of hardship, sadness and despair with little hope left for the people living there.

The theatre closed its doors for good in 2014.
