The swiss vagabond with the black eye who moved from Barcelona to Berlin in 2006 soon became one of the hottest underground attractions of Germany’s party capital. Playing beneath Berlin’s Alexanderplatz at a private show for Quentin Tarantino, BONAPARTE is marching strong, conquering hearts and butts, night after night!
The BONAPARTE CIRCUS operates with two battailons: first, the emperor marching- band featuring Carlos Primero (mexican submarine squad), Cannonier Beaux-Art (loud things) and the malicious rival Caesar (striped valiumpatient), secondly, we’ve got bonnie talents stranded at berlin’s plantation of neuroses like Miss Xixi (paranoid panamanian fuit-salad), Clea Cutthroat (bloody bunny & kiss of death) Zora La Viperine (fire & seduction), Vasy Mouton (actually a boxing goat). One could say BONAPARTE comes from Germany, France, Switzerland, NewZealand, Austria, Panama, America, Poland and Brazil – but sounds like "You know Tolstoy, i know playboy, you know politics, I know party-chicks, you know too much, too much, too much, too much, too much...“

the same time intelligent and immature" - Foggy Notion
"If you wanna know what a Bonaparte show is like just imagine a pile of sweat-wet and extremely thirsty people in a tiny room squeezing through the exit yelling "Anti Anti" towards their opponents and trying to reach the last bottle of water for the next 24 hours which is outside the room. Thats kinda how it was at Villa." - Schnaps Magazine
