A poetic family play about sun, time, and togetherness
With The Girl Who Stole the Sun! a lovingly told theater experience comes to the stage in Kopfbau in Munich, drawing both young audiences and adults into a imaginative world. The production by Judith Seibert combines participatory dance, narrative power, and sensual stage designs into an evening that playfully negotiates questions of responsibility, tolerance, and friendship.
A story that shines brighter than any stage light
At the center lies the question of what happens when the sun never sets. The narrative unfolds a poetic and clever fantasy from this: Toni, Lisa-Sophie-Anjuska, and Berni encounter a story in which a child's idea disrupts the order of the world. That is precisely where the play derives its tension. It plays with curiosity, astonishes with images, and opens a space where theater does not instruct but inspires individual thinking.
Dramaturgy between fairy tales, movement, and insight
The dramaturgy relies on clarity and proximity. Instead of a great distance, an immediate stage experience emerges that works with rhythm, language, and movement. The participatory dance turns the audience into a lively atmosphere rather than a silent crowd. Thus, a fine interplay of acting, physicality, and narrational lightness arises, especially suitable for children from four years old.
A Kopfbau as a space for lively children's theater
The Kopfbau in the Messe City Riem is a notable place for cultural formats of this kind: open, experimental, and close to the audience. The event on June 12, 2026, at 6:00 PM is part of the festival format Hands Up! Culture Weekend!, which will enliven the Kopfbau with dance and theater for young audiences from June 11 to 13, 2026. This environment particularly enhances the performance's charm: a place of new beginnings where contemporary theater is thoughtfully designed for children and is also demanding.
Why this theater evening resonates
The Girl Who Stole the Sun! is more than a child-friendly story. It is a subtle piece about community spirit, sharing light and time, and about imagination as a force. Those seeking lively children's theater with a poetic core will find here an evening that appeals to both heart and intellect.
Conclusion: This performance promises a warm, wise, and moving stage experience in Kopfbau. Families, theater enthusiasts, and curious young viewers should not miss this cultural weekend.
