"Therefore, be good and show yourselves in an exemplary manner, let imagination, with all its choirs, reason, intellect, feeling, passion, but, remember well! not without folly."

Faust, Mephisto, Gretchen, Marthe Schwerdtlein, Wagner, Valentin, Witch, Pupil, Lieschen, Director, Poet, Merry Person, Archangel, Lord, Earth Spirit, Chorus of Angels, Chorus of Women, Chorus of Disciples, Strollers of all kinds, Ghosts, Merry Companions, Witch's Beasts, Evil Spirit, Voice from Above, a Poodle – all roles from Goethe's Faust that would guarantee a large theater the employment of an entire acting company. The Young State Theater Parchim will entrust this burden to a single actor. In a fast-paced hour, he presents the master's greatest work with wit, pathos, and a close connection to the audience. A must-see not only for Faust aficionados and Goethe fans.

There are many reasons for men to climb a mountain: the passion for extreme sports, a sudden midlife crisis, or perhaps to commemorate a hiking-loving friend, Christian, who recently passed away. Steffen, Daniel, and Toni—best friends since their university days—embark on a two-day summit attempt. But it's not just the mountain they're tackling; their lives are also experiencing ups and downs. Steffen, the womanizer and heartthrob with commitment issues, is about to get married and desperately hopes for his friends' support. Daniel hasn't gotten over his breakup, and Toni has been carrying around an unused condom for three years because he just can't seem to find love. This hike becomes not only a journey of self-discovery in matters of the heart for the three of them, but also puts their friendship to the test—with sharp edges, blunt honesty, and plenty of humor.

He disappeared? Where did he go?" – "I have no idea. He was simply gone." – "Maybe he'd finished work for the day."

I once knew a guy named Sterni who was a doorman at a state-subsidized dive bar. "What really matters," he always said, "is overcoming gravity." But the time of utopias was over, and I was on my way to a meeting with the boss, full of anticipation. Then Sterni, smiling happily, stepped in front of me and said, "Despite deadly dangers, I overcame all the obstacles that barred my access to hidden phenomena. I discovered the living cell, found the building block of the elements, and now I'm going to venture into space. What do you say, want to come along?" And then he showed me his rocket. As an enlightened European, I could see immediately, of course, that the thing would never fly, but he just said, "Now let's give that engine some gas," opened two beers, and off we went. Unfortunately, we then had a falling out at an intergalactic convenience store over the question of why all bodies fall at the same rate regardless of their mass, and I haven't seen him since.

Revenge is a dish served cold."

Benjamin Barker returns to London after years of exile – with a new name and sinister intentions. As Sweeney Todd, he opens a barbershop above Mrs. Lovett's bakery on Fleet Street. He wants revenge on Judge Turpin, who once unjustly deported him to Australia in order to steal his wife and daughter. Todd's razor is meant to send Turpin to his doom. The macabre business model he devises with Mrs. Lovett suits him perfectly: a fresh shave is half the battle. The customers who take a seat in Todd's barber's chair end up one floor below – in Mrs. Lovett's meat pies, which soon become incredibly popular. While beggars wander the streets outside and sailors sing of love, madness takes hold of the barber – and sweeps everything away with it.

Lotta is the youngest of the Nyman children—and the most headstrong. The Nyman family lives in a pretty house on Potter Street, which has since been renamed Noise Street because Papa Nyman thinks his three children are definitely not potters, but magnificent noisemakers. Especially energetic Lotta, who thinks she can do anything, even ride a bike. But that goes terribly wrong, and not everything in her life goes according to plan either. Who wants to wear itchy sweaters and have to put up with ignorant siblings? So Lotta decides to move in with Aunt Berg, where she is appreciated and valued. But it's also rather lonely there in the evenings... It's a good thing the Nymans finally realize what they have in their Lotta!

Lotta can do almost anything

“I fear nothing: Cupid and Fortuna are fighting for me.”

The ambitious Poppea is having an affair with the Roman Emperor Nero. She now gives her former lover Ottone the cold shoulder. When Nero decides to abandon his wife Ottavia in order to make Poppea empress, a rift develops between him and Seneca, his teacher and advisor. Seneca pays for his criticism of the tyrant's actions with his life. Ottavia then forces the distraught Ottone to attempt to assassinate Poppea. But Cupid intervenes…

The Coronation of Poppea

The little mermaid saves a prince from drowning and falls in love with him. But to marry him, she must become human – and she's willing to make many sacrifices. The sea witch gives her two human legs in exchange for her fishtail. As the price for this transformation, however, the little mermaid must give up her voice. From then on, she can no longer speak, and her unfamiliar legs and feet hurt terribly. When the prince first sees the now-human mermaid, he is captivated and takes her in. But he doesn't recognize his former rescuer. If the prince marries someone else, the mermaid faces certain death…

"At the beginning of every performance, I always say, 'It doesn't matter at all, today I'm only going half speed.' And at some point, I open my eyes and realize I'm going full throttle, the sweat is just pouring down my face... and catharsis!"

The curtain rises, come what may. And hopefully, no one notices that quite a few things are going wrong in this comedy – and not just for the couple in the play. They've accidentally invited not only their good friend and her new partner to the dinner party, but also her ex-husband. Under no circumstances can the two of them meet. In a series of ludicrous actions, the couple tries to cover up the mishap and prevent disaster as best they can. But there's even more turmoil behind the scenes! Right at the beginning of the play, one of the actors simply can't remember his lines. He thought just moments ago that he was there to do some voice-over work...

I'm running from my memories. For ages now. Until I stumbled across my old diary. Moonlight Tariff. It had a happy ending. But life went on. My name is Cora Hübsch, my children are grown, and my marriage is fragile. Too much routine, too little adventure. Tonight, my life is thrown into disarray. The old guilt, the shadowy figure in the photograph. Is it coincidence? Or a last chance?

How can we live together?"

Shouldn't the oceans also have a voice in a parliament that thinks about the future? And the forests? And, taking this idea further, shouldn't gender equality also be represented in this parliament? The Parliament of Things is a project for the democratic participation of young people, based on the ideas of the French sociologist Bruno Latour. As a theatrical parliament in which scientists, activists, and actors make the decision-making processes of a democratic society tangible, it aims to spark curiosity about the upcoming transformations that the future demands of us as a society. Young people and young adults are invited to hear the voices of the forests and wetlands in the six sessions of the Parliament of Things and to vote on complex issues.

Where there is singing, settle down. Evil people have no songs."

The ensemble of the Young State Theatre Parchim has demonstrated its high musical quality for many years. After forays into the realms of German pop, rock, and popular music, the question arose: what could they surprise audiences with this season? Fittingly, given the city's 800th anniversary, they chose folk songs. These songs, many centuries old, describe everyday and unique events such as birth, nature, love, work, and farewell. In short, they encompass an entire human life.

It can't always stay like this.

Reality check: Who are Schiller's robbers? Are there still marauding gangs among us today, living in forests and lying in wait to rob and even murder? No! We have our police, after all... Yes! But they've just moved their hiding places. Perhaps the club is their new nighttime hideout. By day, they chain themselves to trees and fences in all kinds of weather. They stick themselves to the streets while airing their grievances on social media.
