A fairy tale evening that playfully brushes against the grain

With BELL-MANN AND RÜHMEIER'S ALL FAIRY TALES!, a musical comedy takes the stage at the Silbersaal of the Deutsches Theater Munich that catapults the Grimm universe into today. The song cycle by Michael Bellmann and Ralf Rühmeier transforms familiar narrative patterns into parodic short episodes and promises a stage experience filled with wit, pace, and a fine theatrical atmosphere. The performance on May 16, 2026, at 8:00 PM opens an evening that does not reverently preserve fairy tales but questions them anew vibrantly.

Fairy Tale 2.0 with a satirical bite

When Rapunzel prefers to search for the perfect selfie instead of the perfect prince, and the well-known roles in the fairy-tale cosmos shift, it creates not just a mere parody but a contemporary reflection on desire, clichés, and power images. The production starts precisely where theater exerts its strongest influence: in the playful clash of tradition and the present. After the concert premiere in 2016, the work now experiences its first scenic realization in the Silbersaal. ([muenchenticket.de](https://www.muenchenticket.de/event/alles-m-ae-rchen-37397/))

Musical art in a historical space

The musical masterclass of the Bavarian Theater Academy August Everding brings fresh voices, precise choreography, and young acting talent into the historical space of the Silbersaal. The direction by Silvia Armbruster, the set design by Michael S. Kraus, and the musical direction by Christoph Weinhart indicate a tight interplay of direction, stage, costume, and sound. In the intimacy of the Silbersaal, every punchline, every vocal change, and every audience reaction can unfold particularly immediately.

The Silbersaal as a stage with a special aura

The Silbersaal at the Deutsches Theater Munich offers about 231 seats, creating a concentrated performance venue where closeness between the stage and the audience electrifies the evening. The space is barrier-free accessible, has elevator access for the Silbersaal, and is equipped with an inductive hearing system in the orchestra and balcony. Those who love theatrical atmosphere will find no distance here but a direct stage experience with clear acoustics and a historically rich ambiance.
