CANCELLED: Pre-meeting trip to Nuremberg, a stronghold for children‘s and youth theatre

Experiences

Nuremberg is Bavaria’s second biggest city with a very mixed history. Today, it hosts not only a vibrant scene for children’s and youth theatre, but also several festivals of the genre. Representatives of Nuremberg’s children’s and youth theatre scene offer a children‘s theatre show, a guided tour to selected cultural and historical hotspots and a professional exchange in a relaxed atmosphere with their colleagues.

Performance: Heidi by the Theater Pfütze in cooperation with the State Theatre
Aunt Dete has no place in her life for the little orphan Heidi and brings her to the grandfather living high up in a mountain hut. The city girl won’t take to the meagre existence with a grumpy old man, is the gloomy prediction of the mountain villagers. But surprisingly, Heidi enjoys life on the alpine meadows, surrounded by goats and enchants everybody with her bright mood. She finds a home.

The meal will be accompanied by a meet and greet with the theatre's protagonists, the puppets.
