Summer in Hall 207 is ushered in with unforgettable catchy tunes such as Schenkt man sich Rosen in Tirol , Ich bin die Christel von der Post or Wie mein Ahn'l zwanzig Jahr . The operetta may have premiered in Vienna, but it is set in the Palatinate, where forest and game master Baron Weps has his hands full. He collects bribes from the farmers so that His Serene Highness the Elector will overlook the poaching on his lands during his upcoming visit. Above all, however, Weps has his own arrears and a nephew, Stanislaus, who is even more in debt. Couldn't the money be diverted sensibly? Too bad that the Elector cancels at short notice. And it gets even worse: His wife doesn't know about it and has gone to the village in disguise to confront her unfaithful husband! There are a lot of amorous entanglements to resolve until, in the end, Adam, the bird dealer, gets his Christel; Weps is lucky with a lady-in-waiting and the electress is also reconciled.
House director Rainer Holzapfel will direct the comedy with the lively melodies.

Opera based on the novel of the same name by Hermann Hesse / Composition by Victor Åslund / Libretto by Rainer Lewandowski / In a version by the Volkstheater Rostock
German with German subtitles
The Steppenwolf is one of the great works of world literature and became a cult book in the 1960s at the latest, which has remained fascinating and, more importantly, timelessly relevant to this day. The novel was a major reason why the German-born Hermann Hesse was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1946.

The Steppenwolf

Staatstheater Mainz

The world is round – and so is football, it's that simple. Two die-hard fans, Ralf Schlingmann and Jens Wischmeyer, want to musically circumnavigate the globe before the ball hits the net at New York's MetLife Stadium. That's where the best footballers from around the world will meet in the summer of 2026, after matches in Mexico, Canada, and the USA, to play the final of the 23rd FIFA World Cup on Sunday, July 19. But don't worry, you won't miss a thing! You'll be back home long before kickoff.
