Athens is at a standstill. The old King Theseus announces his abdication once again, but so far nothing has happened. His wife Phaedra is also growing impatient, eager to finally throw off the restrictive corset of the court. The designated heir to the throne, Demophon, is already awaiting his coronation. All that is missing is the planned marriage to Persea, which is supposed to seal the transfer of power. But Persea is no docile bride. Instead of resigning herself to her fate, she questions the rules – and ignites her forbidden love for Phaedra. A scandal that shakes the foundations of Athenian society. In a world ruled by rigid rules and the influence of the high priest, love can become a dangerous act of rebellion. What ensues is a struggle between social order and individual freedom.

The penniless Nemorino is madly in love with Adina. But she, clever and self-confident, disdains his clumsy advances. Instead, she promptly becomes engaged to the rich but complacent Captain Belcore. When the quack Dulcamara arrives in the village, Nemorino finds new hope: a love potion is supposed to turn his luck around! What worked for Tristan and Isolde can't hurt him after all. But the longed-for magic never appears. Desperately, he reaches for a double dose – as they say, more is better. And sure enough: suddenly, the entire village women are flocking to him! But is it really the potion that's to blame?

L'elisir d'amore

Salome lives at the decadent court of her mother Herodias and her stepfather Herod, surrounded by intrigue and moral decay. She projects her sensual and erotic desires onto the imprisoned, ascetic prophet Jochanaan – but when he rejects her in disgust, her obsession escalates to monstrous proportions. She demands Jochanaan's head from Herod on a silver platter, thereby sealing her own downfall...

In Germany, up to 400 billion euros are inherited each year – but that's over now. A radical inheritance reform is intended to ensure real redistribution: Inheritances will be redistributed by lottery, and the bureaucracy will – naturally – be taken over by the job center. Armin and Gabor sit in a dreary, gray civil servant's office and now also process inheritance applications. Silke's application for her inheritance was unfortunately rejected. This is annoying, because her father was extremely wealthy. She should at least be entitled to a lottery ticket, Silke believes, and storms into the job center in a rage, where she meets Maude in the waiting room. She was caught collecting deposit bottle deposits – and Gabor promptly deducted the deposit money from her basic social security benefits. Two women, two completely different lives – but one common goal: They no longer want to be sidelined by this system. Without further ado, they grab their weapons and storm Gabor's office to reclaim their "rights" with all their might.

Once per season, the First Steps format gives the dancers of the Coburg State Theatre's ballet ensemble the opportunity to premiere their own choreographies. This doesn't just focus on movement: they can also be creative in the areas of stage and costume design, as well as lighting design, and further develop their artistic style. First Steps is a platform for young choreographers who experiment with different dance styles and movement languages ​​and explore new concepts. The musical spectrum is also broad – from classical to pop to hip-hop.

Tonight, the big Addams family dinner is taking place, but something is different with her daughter. The usually so dark and grim Wednesday Addams is suddenly smiling! A frightening sight – her mother Morticia is sure she's sick. But her husband Gomez insists on the planned dinner and is also behaving strangely. What Morticia doesn't know: Wednesday is in love and wants to get engaged. To a handsome, intelligent young man from a respectable family, of all people. Terribly unmorbid. And it gets worse. At the family dinner, the two families are supposed to finally get to know each other. While the Addamses are enthusiastic about torture instruments, the Beinekes are acting a bit stiffly. When Pugsley, Wednesday's little brother with a penchant for explosives, gets involved, the young couple's happiness is put to a severe test. The internationally successful Broadway musical can now be seen here in Coburg. Look forward to a quirky, chaotic evening and celebrate the unconventional!
