Operation Snow Melting: True Crime live in the Silver Hall
A spectacular cocaine smuggling case becomes an exciting stage investigation: On November 12, 2026, actors Winfried Frey and investigation expert Horst Wanner guide the audience in the Silver Hall of the Munich City Theater to the trail of an extraordinary Bavarian drug investigation case.
Between investigation files and stage atmosphere
The production combines reading, podcast, and documentary theater into an unusual stage experience. Original protocols and reports form the basis for an evening that traces the creation, the paths, and the eventual destruction of the cocaine. The dramaturgy follows the logic of an investigation: each piece of information opens a new lead, each twist alters the perspective on the case.
When coincidence becomes the decisive lead
At the center are the questions of how cocaine reaches Europe, why the trade in narcotics is so difficult to decipher, and what mechanisms are behind smuggling. Winfried Frey and Horst Wanner tell how banana boxes and the Corona pandemic contributed to the arrest of a European boss of the cocaine mafia. An incorrect entry in Google Earth turned out to be a crucial trigger for the investigations of the Bavarian Public Prosecutor's Office.
Acting meets investigative knowledge
The special quality of the event lies in the interplay of two perspectives. Winfried Frey brings narrative presence and precision of acting, while Horst Wanner illuminates the professional side of investigative work. This creates a vibrant production, in which the set design, acoustics, and concentrated theater atmosphere are entirely aligned with the power of the facts.
An evening for true crime fans
The audience does not experience a fictional criminal case, but a documentary approach to real crimes. The mix of original materials, investigation details, and personal communication makes the event varied and immediate. The age recommendation of 16 years and older underscores the serious engagement with the topic.
Conclusion: Experience investigative work up close
Operation Snow Melting transforms the Silver Hall into a place of trace searching. Those who appreciate true crime, documentary theater, and gripping stories from the world of investigations will enjoy a concentrated evening with surprising twists and well-founded insights. Secure your ticket and follow the trail live at the Munich City Theater.
