The Criminal Dinner 'And you're out' - this is a delicious multi-course menu in a stylish atmosphere framed by an exciting criminal case that will take place in the Schlosswirtschaft Schwaige in Munich.

You find yourself in the ballroom of the exquisite wellness hotel "Pachisi". The gala dinner is ready and the kitchen already smells delicious. After the strenuous yoga afternoon, you truly deserve your dinner! Or perhaps you preferred to have fun with archery or water aerobics? Whichever group you were in - now you come together for the feast and the exclusive presentation of the new board game "And you're out" - the game author will be present! Much to the dismay of the yoga icon Eva Endlich, who would have preferred to send her guests to bed early. After all, "Sunrise Yoga" is on the agenda for tomorrow. But what was announced as a fun game night turns into a serious matter: a body hangs dead over the garden fence - with an arrow in the chest. A competition between the rival sports groups? Or a sinister version of the "Game of Life"? Roll the dice! It's about nothing less than the truth and the necessity to identify the perpetrator(s)!

The multi-course menu will be served by the restaurant team of Schlosswirtschaft Schwaige, ensuring thrills for both nerves and palate. Admission is at 4:30 pm - the event starts at 5:00 pm.

Admission: 4:30 pm / Multi-course menu and play are included in the price / Table and seating will be assigned on-site

"Something is happening here, but you don’t know what it is."

So it probably went for the parents at the aborted school concert in Hibbing in 1959, the guests at Cafe Wha? in 1961, the visitors of the Newport Folk Festival in 1965, and many who have ever experienced the musical phenomenon Bob Dylan live.

Daniel Holzberg takes us on a kaleidoscopic journey of impressions: songs, lyrics, prophecies, anecdotes, and statements from an iconic artist who has captivated his fans as often as he has escaped their expectations.

"Don't Think Twice" leads us from Dylan's beginnings in folk music through the sudden reversal (perhaps also return) to rock 'n' roll to his status as one of the most versatile songwriters of our time. And it addresses the most important questions: What influence did he have at a very young age on the music of the 60s, what did he mean to many people from that era, and what significance was imposed on him - the mouthpiece of a generation, prophet, threat to society, organic farmer?

All "truths" about Bob Dylan will be viewed from different perspectives this evening and remain elastic - after winning the Oscar and Nobel Prize in Literature, the legendary musician wins the prize of elusiveness.

Conversely, Daniel's love for Dylan's vivid lyrics and catchy songs is tangible, as he is not focused on copying but rather on an attempt at spiritual contact with this exceptional figure of the music business.

In total, he will play 20 songs (from over 800 possible!), lamenting the world with dylan-esque disillusionment, while also paying tribute to his role models, companions, and critics, including Joan Baez, Pete Seeger, Allen Ginsberg, Mr. Jones, and of course Woody Guthrie.

By and with Daniel Holzberg

In the superhero headquarters, four heroes are waiting for their missions. Unfortunately, there are no major problems anymore, so no one can shine with spectacular missions. Then a powerful woman joins, who has even greater powers and generously shares them. Euphorically, the heroes set out into the world with their respective superpowers. Disillusioned, they return from their battles. What superpower can still help in this world? – Without words, but with a lot of comic humor and heroic physical effort, the players test heroic actions for themselves and the group.

Michai Geyzen completed his directing studies in 2016 in Maastricht. Since then, he has made a name for himself with humorous productions of Physical Theatre. His production "Light/House" was featured at the THINK BIG! festival 2022 at the Schauburg. Since 2023, he has been a permanent member of the management team at the Belgian theater Laika.

A dizzying Bundestag revue

On stage: Timo Doleys / Stefan Martin Müller, Jens Eulenberger / Jens Neutag, Caroline Lux Music: Falk Breitkreuz, Tilman Ritter Play: ONKeL fISCH; Director: Sebastian Wirnitzer Choreography: Marita Erxleben

We all know it: The real state insanity happens in secret. Decisions are not made in the spotlight, but where no one bothers: in the back room of power. And the DISTEL is right there. In a grotesque revue, the illustrious Bundestag personnel rush from left to right, making your head spin. New parliamentarians duel with old geezers, ghostwriters dance with hall attendants, horse-trading here, espionage there, and in the middle the first Bundestag debate poetry slam. Finally, a glimpse through the keyhole into the back room of power. Is the Bundestag corrupt? Amateurish? Confusing? Yes, all of that. And yet, it is one of the funniest parliaments we know. The DISTEL entertains with sharp humor and live music. First-class cabaret is offered - always up-to-date and on the pulse of the times.

Katrin Ambrosius studied at the Hochschule für Musik Leipzig with Prof. Hertel. After her state examination, she completed several years of postgraduate studies in Moscow at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory with Prof. Kryssa and Prof. Besrodny, graduating with a soloist diploma with distinction. She then had a substitute contract at the Gewandhaus in Leipzig, and was a member of the radio orchestra in Leipzig, the State Philharmonic Hamburg, and under a fixed-term contract with the Munich Philharmonic. Her training as a music therapist and as a NLP Practitioner (with Dr. Bandler, USA) round out her experience as a soloist, educator, orchestral musician, and chamber musician. She is particularly dedicated to the musical heritage of her grandfather, the composer Hermann Ambrosius. With numerous recordings in radio and television stations, she has been able to bring her grandfather's music closer to a wide audience. She is a multiple winner of the Johann Sebastian Bach Competition in Leipzig. Her instrument is from Giovanni Battista Gabrielli, dated 1769.

Erwin Stein, born in Michelstadt-Steinbach, Hesse, is a renowned pianist. He received his musical education from Werner Hoppstock in Darmstadt and Ludwig Hoffmann in Munich, where he graduated with a master class diploma. His outstanding achievements include the 1st prize at the Federal Competition of Conservatories and Academies, as well as the 1st prize and the golden palm at the international piano competition "Palma d´oro" in Finale Ligure.

Since 1979, he has been working as a lecturer at the Hochschule für Musik München. His solo career has taken him to significant performance venues such as Schloss Bellevue in Berlin and the large concert hall in Vienna. In addition, he is intensively committed to chamber music and regularly performs with members of the Munich Philharmonic and Bavarian Radio.

A special focus of his artistic work is his role as a piano accompanist. In this capacity, he has been engaged as the official accompanist for the International Master Classes of Max Rostal and Dmitri Sitkovetsky. He also serves as an accompanist for the Munich Pfitzner Song Competition.

Martin Fogt has been a speaker and moderator at Bavarian Radio since 1985, particularly on BR-KLASSIK and Bayern 2.

Communication and peace in Gaza - Utopia or realistic perspective? Chaja Polak, one of the outstanding voices of Dutch literature, looks at the Middle East conflict with deep understanding for the victims, reflecting on its history and ramifications. The Holocaust survivor, born in 1941, shares the fates behind the headlines and makes it clear that grief and despair know no sides. Her great, humanitarian essay (Droemer Verlag / Translated from Dutch by Bärbel Jänicke) is a vehement call for dialogue, reflection, and action. Together with Jan Konst and Iris Berben, she presents her plea for communication and peace.

On an abandoned farm in Lower Bavaria's Hintersbrunn, it is haunted. The spirit of Hackl-Toni, who wiped out his entire family many years ago, is said to roam. This is what Franz claims – but no one believes him. His childhood friend Gundi Starck, who uncovers unsolved criminal cases as a reporter, encounters a "Zuagroaster" in the village who wants the decaying haunted house at any cost. When Gundi inspects the farmstead, she makes a chilling discovery and puts herself in deadly danger.

The young and brave monarch butterfly Patrick wants nothing more than to fly. But since one of his wings is smaller than the other, that doesn't quite work out. When the whole butterfly swarm wants to embark on a long and not entirely safe journey south in the autumn, Patrick naturally wants to come along. But how should he manage that...? The North American monarch butterflies set off for Mexico every year to hibernate there. An event that served as inspiration. Awarded the German Animation Screenplay Award in 2021, the film enchants with its vibrant colors, which transport viewers into the colorful blooming world of butterflies. Themes like overcoming handicaps, gaining self-confidence, and the power of togetherness are at the center of this child-friendly film. “A magical adventure for young and old!” (Kronen-Zeitung) “Awarded special value” (Dt. Filmbewertung). Canada, Germany 2024, 88 min., FSK: 0.

Andrea wants to end her unhappy marriage. After a birthday party, her soon-to-be ex-husband drunkenly stumbles in front of her car. In shock, she flees the scene of the accident. The problem is: Andrea is a police officer and is about to leave the provincial wasteland for St. Pölten, where she will soon start at the criminal police. But then something completely unexpected happens: Franz (Josef Hader), a religion teacher and recovering alcoholic, mistakenly believes he is the perpetrator and willingly takes the blame. While he wobbles aimlessly toward his downfall, Andrea tries to cover her tracks.
“With a wonderfully grotesque blend of humor and melancholy” (NDR), Austrian cabaret artist Josef Hader demonstrates once again in his second film that he is a keen observer of human nature. It’s about “unrealized dreams, missed happiness, and fateful encounters – a keenly observed analysis of a village society and a plea against any longing for rural living” (SWR). For this, Hader brought together a top-notch ensemble in front of the camera, all of whom speak the most beautiful Austrian dialect. “Especially Birgit Minichmayr as Andrea is simply fantastic.” (SZ) “The way Josef Hader turns all of this into a comedy – merciless yet loving at the same time – is truly special! A stroke of luck!” (TTT) Austria 2023, 94 min., age rating: 6.

Admission about 30 minutes before the start
