Max & Moritz
In Grandma Busch’s attic, a very special book turns up among some old boxes: “Max und Moritz.” No sooner is it opened than Wilhelm Busch’s legendary rascals and their seven pranks come to life on stage.
Moving boxes are transformed into houses, a classroom, a bakery, and entire little worlds. With quick transformations, plenty of enthusiasm, and music, we meet Widow Bolte, Teacher Lämpel, Uncle Fritz, and, of course, Max und Moritz.
There’s sawing, fishing, messing around with May beetles, and plenty of mischief. But eventually, even the biggest rascals ask themselves: When does a prank actually stop being funny? And because stories can also be retold, even the famous ending of *Max und Moritz* takes a surprising new turn.
anda Kids presents Wilhelm Busch’s classic as a new musical family theater production in Swiss dialect—cheeky, playful, imaginative, and full of music. The stage adaptation is by Simon Burkhalter, with music and lyrics by Flavio Baltermia.
A story about pranks, boundaries, and the fact that there’s probably a little Max & Moritz in all of us.
A new musical for little rascals and everyone who wants to be one.
Recommended for ages 6 and up.
