The NEINhorn and the Birthday

The time of the Nazis is over. Today the world is enlightened and safe. That's right, isn't it? In history class, a school class is discussing these and other questions when the Second World War is on the curriculum. The students agree that there can no longer be a dictatorship in Germany today. To prove how easily people can be seduced, manipulated and exploited, the teacher begins an experiment. The class is supposed to work together as a group through discipline and community. As #THEWELLE2024, the students delve deeper and deeper into the experiment. But then everything gets out of control.

Das Da Theater

Friendship knows no age: Penny McNamara, in her mid-30s, was a disaster as a student. Despite this, she studies art history and cheats her way through life. She loves karaoke more than her studies and skimpy clothing. Her former teacher, Konstanze Engelbrück, who is now retired, is in the middle of a life crisis. What helps the two women? Letting their feelings run free, and the best way to do this is with the right songs. So the two meet every Friday at "Perkin's Diner" for karaoke evening. With every single song they sing, the very different women open up a little more.

Gut Hebscheid

In the land of dreams, between Bubble Lake and Sun Hill, a little unicorn lives with its family in the Heart Forest. And although it is cute and cute, it always has the feeling that it is in the wrong place. That is why the animal does not behave like a unicorn at all. Everyone can be as sweet as they want to it and feed it sugared four-leaf clover, but it always says no, so that its family soon just calls it NOhorn.

One day the NEINhorn breaks out of his cotton candy world. He meets a raccoon who doesn't want to listen, a dog who really doesn't care about anything, and a princess who always talks back. The four of them make a pretty good team. Because even being stubborn is much more fun together!

With "The NEINhorn" we are bringing the successful children's book by bestselling author Marc-Uwe Kling (including "The Kangaroo Chronicles") to the stage for everyone aged three and over. Witty, cheeky and with lots of music, the lively story tells of discovering your own needs, desires and yourself as a child. Because saying no is also important, as is living out your own imagination.
