DAS RUHRICAL – THE HEART OF THE RUHR AREA ON STAGE!
“Doors closed and 3 hours of pure fun and joy with family or friends,” welcomed Erwin Machulke, the caretaker of RUHRICAL, the audience. And he kept his word: The RUHRICAL combines pop, rock, musical, and schlager in a thrilling show and tells the stories of the Ruhr area in all its diversity – authentic, passionate, and full of humor. The audience immersed themselves for almost three hours in emotions, creativity, and the great warmth of the region – a direct access to the heart of the Ruhr area and its visitors.
THE SOUND OF HERE – THE RUHRICAL
Everything that RUHRICAL presents on stage comes directly from the region – whether it’s the ensemble, the songs, or the stories. RUHRICAL proves that what is good is often right in front of us: The biggest hits from the Ruhr area are often also world-famous classics and become the musical highlight in this spectacular stage production. From the modern arrangement of “Glück auf, der Steiger kommt” to the exhilarating “Helge Schneider Medley” – presented by the vocal wonder Marc Stahlberg – every moment is guaranteed to be a sing-along and cheer-along experience. Those wondering what a Michael Jackson song has to do with the Ruhr area will find the answer in RUHRICAL. Here, the good from the region comes to life in a unique way – creating unforgettable goosebump moments.
TRADITION MEETS MODERNITY
Great dance choreography and the anthemic “Glück auf, der Steiger kommt” in a production that combines the tradition and modern dynamics of the region: Thanks to realistic animations, the audience dives 1000 meters below the earth and experiences the magic of the Ruhr area up close. Whether it’s Cranger Kirmes, a stadium visit, or time spent with friends in the allotment garden – the Ruhr area comes alive in the Mondpalast.
PETRA & RITCHIE – A LOVE IN THE RUHR AREA
Experience the touching story of Petra and Ritchie, which tells of love, solidarity, and togetherness – despite all obstacles. Amidst impressive industrial backdrops and along the idyllic banks of the Ruhr, their passion for music and life in the Ruhr area unfolds. A homage to friendship, family, and the unique places of the region – a story that touches the heart and enchants, carrying the Ruhr area in its heart.
