Brothers Grimmig

The puss in boots

Hanno Wuckasch and Heiki Ikkola embody the brothers Grimmig in Bärbel Haage's imaginative set as "The Puss in Boots", a play that deals with the value of small lies in emergency situations - with courage in seemingly hopeless situations and the realisation that smallness can be transformed into greatness and greatness into smallness - if you really want to.

The production carries the scent of the demimonde, dubious vaudeville worlds and a universe in which only quick-wittedness, questioning power structures and a few clever tricks make a pleasant life possible. What appears to be predetermined and unchangeable can be changed, circumvented, questioned or eliminated if necessary. The playful sphere of the circus, pirate adventures, charlatanry and the stage - it is the ideal setting to develop the necessary self-confidence for such upheavals!
