      "Stars of Satire - Walk of Fame of Cabaret" is the name of a piece of pedestrian zone along the Proviantamt in Mainz. It connects the German Cabaret Archive Foundation housed in the old fortress building with the Unterhaus – Mainz Forum Theater and with Schillerstrasse. Wikipedia

        The “Walk of Fame of Cabaret” was set up when the cabaret archive moved to the historic Proviant warehouse in July 2004. The installation was opened on July 16 in the presence of the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and Media, Christina Weiss, and Kurt Beck, Prime Minister of Rhineland-Palatinate. The stars are made of stainless steel. The artist's name is engraved in capital letters on the bronze plate. The star contains their personal signature. The donor of the star is also engraved.

        The initiators, the German Cabaret Archive, the Forum-Theater Unterhaus and the city of Mainz, are using this project to commemorate outstanding personalities who, as cabaret artists, authors, cartoonists, graphic artists, musicians or singers, have had a decisive influence on the cabaret genre or contributed to the history of cabaret.

        Information about the honorees, such as audio clips, photos or the laudationes, can be found in the German Cabaret Archive (Archive | Museum | Stage) and/or directly via QR code on the large star in the middle of Romano Guardini Square[2]. More than eighty artistic-documentary legacies and materials on over eighty thousand names from the history of cabaret and its historical predecessors now form the core of the cabaret archive, which dates back to a private initiative by Reinhard Hippen in 1961. In Bernburg (Saale), the East German branch, the "Heads of Satire" can be admired in Bernburg Castle. Numerous archive documents there also commemorate the "immortals" of cabaret during the GDR era.
